Visit the Important Documents section of our Web site at www.cgp.gc.ca to view our new policy guidelines on the following topics: security assessments by the CGP, compliance inspections, and temporary worker exemptions and security assessments.

 Do you do business with contractual workers?

There is a new policy guideline available on our Web site on contractual workers. This policy will provide assistance to Registered Persons in determining when contractual workers must be registered with the CGP or when they can be dealt solely by the Registered Person's security plan.

 New forms

We are pleased to introduce CGP's new application form, along with an instruction kit. The application form can be used to register with the CGP, apply for renewal or amend information supplied to the CGP. Furthermore, a newly redesigned security assessment application is now available for designated officials and sole proprietors. Both applications can be found in the Forms section of our Web site.

 Amendments to the Controlled Goods Regulations (CGR)

Amendments have been made to the CGR in regards to Canadian and United States government officials, and International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) Registered Persons. Specifically, Canadian and United States government officials are no longer required to register with the CGP and ITAR Registered Persons must provide further evidence to the Canadian Registered Person's Designated Official to access controlled goods and/or technology within Canada. To learn more about these amendments, visit the Controlled Goods Regulations section of our Web site.
