On September 29, 2010, the Chief Electoral Officer appeared before the Standing Senate Committee on Legal and Constitutional Affairs to seek formal approval for Elections Canada to test an assistive voting device (AVD), to help electors with disabilities during the November 29, 2010, by-election in the electoral district of Winnipeg North. On October 21, 2010, the Committee tabled its Report on the Use of Assistive Voting Device for Persons with Disabilities. The report approved the request to test the AVD and made a number of recommendations, one being that the Chief Electoral Officer should report back to the Committee by March 1, 2011, with the results of the pilot project. On October 7, 2010, the Chief Electoral Officer appeared before the Standing Committee on Procedure and House Affairs, seeking formal approval for the AVD pilot project. On March 1, 2011, the Chief Electoral Officer submitted to both committees a report on the AVD pilot project, which included Elections Canada's response to the recommendations of the Senate and House committees. The report can be found at www.elections.ca/content.aspx?section=res&dir=rep/oth/avd&document=index&lang=e. |
