The Securities
Commission (Adoption of National Instruments) Amendment Regulations,
2006
come into force on August 1, 2006. The regulations adopt amendments
to National Instrument 31-101 National Registration System.
NI 31-101 is a
national registration system aimed to improve the registration
system through a mutual reliance process. The amendments to NI
31-101 require that a firm filer select as its principal regulator
the local securities regulatory authority or regulator in the
jurisdiction where the filer’s head office is located. In
exceptional circumstances, factors other than the firm’s head office
may be considered when the firm filer applies for a change of
principal regulator.
