Forward Regulatory Plan: Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat

The Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat’s Forward Regulatory Plan: 2023 to 2025:

  • is a publicly available list, with descriptions, of planned or anticipated regulatory changes (regulatory initiatives) that the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat intends to propose or finalize within a two-year period
  • may include regulatory initiatives that are planned to come forward over a longer time frame and that are indicated as long-term

Some of the initiatives in this plan may be associated with the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat’s multi-year plan to review its existing regulations (Regulatory Stock Review Plan, 2023 to 2033).

Purpose

Forward Regulatory Plans are intended to help Canadians, including businesses, Indigenous peoples and trading partners, plan for:

  • opportunities to provide their feedback during regulatory development
  • future regulatory changes

The Forward Regulatory Plan briefly describes each regulatory initiative and includes information such as:

  • who may be affected by a regulatory initiative
  • regulatory cooperation efforts undertaken or planned
  • opportunities for public consultation
  • links to related information or analysis
  • contact information for the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat

Updates

The Forward Regulatory Plan and the Regulatory Stock Review Plan are updated annually to reflect, for example:

  • progress in regulatory development
  • changes to the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat’s regulatory priorities or its operating environment
