Dear Colleagues,

We are in the process of preparing submissions in response to HRSDC’s call for submissions regarding its recently released discussion paper on Part III of the Canada Labour Code.

If you would like to participate in developing CACE’s submissions on the various issues raised in the discussion paper, please advise me as soon as possible. For your convenience I attach a link to the discussion paper. Areas in respect of which we would appreciate your input include, notably. the structure of whatever administrative tribunal should be charged with deciding cases under Part III. Professor Arthurs recommended more serious cases be sent to the CIRB and the less serious ones be dealt with by a separate tribunal, that would be created and charged with the roles currently handled by referees and adjudicators under Part III of the Code.

Thank you. I hope to hear from many of you.
