About this statute

This part defines key terms and gives officials powers over land management zones, off-road vehicle areas, resource roads, permits, security, and user agreements. This segment gives the Commissioner in Executive Council and the Minister several powers over territorial lands, resource-road regulations, enforcement, and land disposition, and it creates offences for breaching certain regulations or orders. This provision lets certain people apply to vary an order, allows the court to require notice and make several changes if circumstances materially change, creates an offence for contraventions without another penalty, says no one acquires territorial land by prescription, gives the Commissioner in Executive Council regulation-making power, requires certain public notices to be bilingual, and says the Act begins when the federal Territorial Lands Act stops applying in Yukon.
