Raj Chouhan (Burnaby-Edmonds) expected to continue to serve as Speaker of the Legislative Assembly
The Premier's Office made the announcement Friday afternoon in a statement that pointed to recent personnel moves as the rationale.
Sittings differ from sessions because they do not involve the passage of legislation. The legislature will instead return in February with a Throne Speech followed by a full legislative session inclusive budget. The office of Premier David Eby said the decision not to hold a fall sitting of one day in length followed internal discussions, adding that such a short session would have been unusual and have posed logistical challenges.
Reaction from the B.C. Conservatives to the news of the legislature not returning until February 2025 was critical.
