Consultation
Your comments and input play an important part in Canada's regulatory
process. Do you have an opinion on the types of controls that should be
put in place to safeguard the environment, the foods you eat, or the drugs
you buy? These are just some of the many regulations that affect the daily
lives of Canadians.
The Regulatory Policy requires that federal departments and agencies
demonstrate that Canadians have been consulted and that they have had
an opportunity to participate in developing or modifying regulations and
regulatory programmes.
Pre-publication in Part I of the Canada Gazette gives various
interested groups and individuals, as well as Canadians in general, a
final opportunity to review and comment on a proposed regulation at the
last stages of the regulation-making process, before it is enacted and
published in Part II of the Canada Gazette.
Pre-publication also gives interested parties, those stakeholders previously
consulted at the beginning of the regulatory process, the opportunity
to see how the final draft proposal is in keeping with previous consultation
drafts.
