Ministerial Regulations

June 2009

Section 94(3) of the FOIP Act allows the Minister responsible for the Act, to designate an agency, board, commission, corporation, office or other body as a public body by regulation.  The Minister may make such a regulation in accordance with the same criteria that apply to designation of a public body by the Lieutenant Governor in Council, but may do so only at the request of the Minister responsible for that agency, board, commissioner, corporation, office or other body.

A ministerial regulation made under section 94(3) is repealed on the coming into force of a regulation made by the Lieutenant Governor in Council which designates the body as a public body in Schedule 1 of the FOIP Regulation.
