Summary
Bill 157 is a private and local bill introduced in the Nova Scotia Legislature that amends Chapter 108 of the Acts of 1954, which is the original law that established and governs the LaHave and District Fire Department in Lunenburg County, Nova Scotia. Because this is a private and local bill, it applies only to a specific organization or geographic area rather than to all Nova Scotians. The full text of the specific amendments is not included in the available bill information, but such amendments to fire department acts typically deal with matters like governance structure, membership rules, funding authority, or operational boundaries. The bill passed quickly through the Nova Scotia Legislature, receiving Royal Assent on October 3, 2025, just days after being introduced. It is now law as Chapter 22 of the 2025 Statutes of Nova Scotia.
