Statutory Declaration of Residence 
The statutory declaration is used to establish the Member’s ordinary and usual place of residence and his or her entitlement to certain monetary allowances.

Each Member who is not a Minister or the Premier must swear a statutory declaration before the Law Clerk, indicating the place where the Member ordinarily resides when they are not attending Sessions of the Legislative Assembly, meetings of its Committees, or other business as a Member as defined in Section 22 of the Legislative Assembly and Executive Council Act.

Members are required to swear a Statutory Declaration of Residence within 60 days of being sworn in as a Member.  A Member who moves from the place indicated on their sworn Statutory Declaration of Residence is obliged to swear a new statutory declaration before the Law Clerk without delay.

Contact the Office of the Clerk for more information.
