My intention is to publish the Mediation Bill early in the next session and thereafter to proceed quickly with enactment of the legislation. The Bill will contain provisions designed to promote mediation as a viable, effective and efficient alternative to court proceedings, thereby reducing legal costs for the parties, speeding up the resolution of disputes, including disputes between neighbouring land owners, and relieving the stress involved in court proceedings.
