| − | === Overview===
| |
| − | The Regulators’ Capacity Fund (RCF) responds to calls from Canada’s business community, which has been vocal in its desire for regulators to give increased weight to economic and competitiveness considerations in the development and enforcement of regulations. From 2020-2025, the RCF supported 37 projects with over $14.2 million in funding.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | To help regulators improve their capacity to incorporate economic, competitiveness, and resilience considerations in the design and implementation of regulations, the aims of the renewed Regulators’ Capacity Fund are to:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | *enhance the capacity of regulators to accurately assess economic impacts of regulatory proposals, including impacts on competitiveness at sector and aggregate levels;
| |
| − |
| |
| − | *enhance the capacity of regulators to design and administer regulations in a manner that accounts for economic and competitiveness impacts, within the context of their overall objectives; and,
| |
| − | *enhance the capacity of regulators to incorporate learnings from the ongoing pandemic response and adapt to rapidly-evolving regulatory landscapes to facilitate a system that is better equipped to mitigate future risks and respond to unanticipated developments, especially those related to climate change and public health.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The RCF supports departments and agencies in undertaking projects or initiatives, ranging in scope, that contribute to the enhancement of regulatory capacity. This involves supporting initiatives that would help regulators carry out their functions in a way that is conducive to economic growth. These initiatives would ultimately contribute to enhanced regulatory competitiveness in or beyond their respective sectors.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The Regulators’ Capacity Fund is overseen by the Centre for Regulatory Innovation, within the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat’s Regulatory Affairs Sector. As part of the Government’s broader regulatory modernization agenda, the Centre promotes a federal regulatory framework that supports innovation and competitiveness.

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. | + | <div style="font-size: 14pt; font-weight: bold; color: #1F402B; margin-bottom: 10px;">Regulators' Capacity Fund: Lessons Learned Report</div> |

| − | |As part of the Access Consortium Project, 5 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.

| + | </div> |
| − | |HC proposes to develop a framework by which to obtain the costs of collection of Canadian’s willingness to pay for the benefits of regulations to obtain additional valuable data for cost-benefit analysis. In preparing complex regulations it is often easier to collect and monetize the costs to regulated parties than the benefits to the public.

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.

As Automated Driving Systems vehicles are evolving from traditional mechanical systems to software centric platforms, novel approaches to safety oversight are required. Starting with the digitalization of real-world driving environments, computer simulation test tools for automated vehicles will be examined to verify the accuracy of manufacturer’s test results for regulatory decision-making purposes.
