I agree with Mr. Owens on that point. His analogy regarding what is happening with the treasurer being removed, which involves the Secretary General of the Department of Finance presenting the budget each December, is a good one. We have had a great deal of discussion on head 20 which relates to the board of directors and on the term limits. The proposed subsection (10) provides that the spouse, partner, child, parent or cohabitant of someone who is working for the credit union voluntarily will be unable to serve on the board of directors of the credit union. If that provision is enacted, what impact will it have on the board of directors of Mr. Owens's credit union?
