The results of the study will help determine the regulatory equivalency of drone-based applications to ground based and airplane-based applications to inform future regulatory decision-making. | + | |AAFC will lead a study to compare pesticide residue levels on crops applied using drones to traditional equipment that are approved for pesticide application.

− | |The Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment agreed to work to minimize duplication and reduce the reporting burden for industry and governments. ECCC, with six other provinces, designed three interconnected reporting applications to collect this information in 2011. ECCC is aiming to reduce reporting burden on industries and enhance user experience by consolidating the three GHG reporting applications into one, implementing a user-centric design, features and up-to-date technology. | + | |As part of the Access Consortium Project, five countries - Australia, Canada, Singapore, Switzerland and United Kingdom review drug applications independently, and share files to collaborate. As regulators are repeating others’ work and due to differences in cloud policies of every country, this is done in a nonsynchronous way at this time. HC is aiming to further develop a proof-of-concept prototype that will allow all five international partners to collaborate and share information in a secure manner real-time. |

| |
− | |IAAC proposes to utilize an experienced senior analyst to conduct an effective cost benefit analysis as part of the development of Cost Recovery Regulations. The resource would involve and train ~ three IAAC staff from the Legislative and Regulatory Affairs Division while the CBA is being conducted. This will allow agency staff to learn how to conduct CBAs for future regulatory initiatives as well as those currently underway.
