Following the endorsement of resolutions by RMA members, the RMA forwards the resolutions to the appropriate provincial or federal ministry or organization for an initial response. Based on the response received, the RMA assigns the resolution a status and drafts an initial reaction.
The RMA updates the resolutions database and issues bulletins with updates as responses are received. The RMA has received ten responses to the Spring 2024 resolutions. Given these responses, the RMA has drafted an initial reaction to the ten resolutions.
The government responses, statuses, and the RMA reactions can be viewed for each resolution on the RMA Resolutions Database:
1-24S | Declining Fire Department Services Across Rural Alberta |
2-24S | Water Apportionment Performance |
3-24S | Continued Support for Regional Economic Development Alliances |
