The Treasury Board has launched a Red Tape review of regulations across federal departments and agencies with regulatory responsibilities.
As part of this review, Ministers will review regulations in their portfolios and propose actions and measures to eliminate red tape –– including removing outdated regulation, reducing duplication with provincial rules, and making it easier to access and deliver services. The review will be overseen by the recently created Red Tape Reduction Office, and within 60 days, Ministers will report to the President of the Treasury Board on their organizations’ progress and next steps.
CWWA will be monitoring this initiative as some regulatory burden could be reduced if identified during the review stage.
