This presentation will outline the current scope of law-making powers and authority under the Framework Agreement, including the fundamental sections and requirements in the development and enforcement of First Nations laws under their respective land codes. We will discuss various enforcement systems including but not limited to ticketing, prosecution and dispute resolution. Examples will be provided illustrating some of the types of laws developed by our signatory First Nations. Hear success stories of enforcement and learn of the support-services offered through the Resource Centre on this very important topic.
