Forward Regulatory Plan: Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat
The Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat’s Forward Regulatory Plan: 2019 to 2021:
- 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 2‑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).
Purpose

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 will be updated over time to reflect, for example:
