Pursuant to paragraph 18(1)(a) of the Hazardous Materials Information Review Act, the Chief Screening Officer hereby gives notice of the decisions of the screening officer respecting each claim for exemption and the relevant material safety data sheet (MSDS) and (where applicable) the label listed below.

In accordance with section 20 of the Hazardous Materials Information Review Act, a claimant or any affected party, as defined, may appeal a decision or order of a screening officer. An affected party may also appeal an undertaking in respect of which a notice has been published in the Canada Gazette. To initiate the appeal process, a Statement of Appeal (Form 1) as prescribed by the Hazardous Materials Information Review Act Appeal Board Procedures Regulations must be completed and delivered, along with the fee prescribed by section 12 of the Hazardous Materials Information Review Regulations, within 45 days of the publication of this notice in the Canada Gazette, Part I, to the Chief Appeals Officer at the following address: Workplace Hazardous Materials Bureau, 269 Laurier Avenue West, 4th Floor, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0K9.

ROSSLYNN MILLER-LEE
Chief Screening Officer

On February 11, 2015, the Hazardous Products Act (HPA) was amended, and the Controlled Products Regulations (CPR) and the Ingredient Disclosure List were repealed and replaced with the new Hazardous Products Regulations (HPR). The revised legislation (HPA/HPR) is referred to as WHMIS 2015 and the former legislation (HPA/CPR) is referred to as WHMIS 1988.

Transitional provisions allow compliance with either WHMIS 1988 or WHMIS 2015 for a specified period of time. All claims for exemption in this publication were filed and evaluated in accordance with the provisions of WHMIS 1988.

There were no written representations from affected parties with respect to any of the claims for exemption and related MSDSs or labels mentioned below.

Each of the claims for exemption listed in the table below was found to be valid except for those for Registry Numbers (RNs) 9184, 9214, 9431, 9432, 9438, 9439, 9444, 9447, 9459, 9544, 9562, 9566, 9567 and 9578, which were found to be partially valid, and RNs 9477 and 9535, which were found to be invalid. The screening officer reached this decision after reviewing the information in support of the claim, having regard exclusively to the criteria found in section 3 of the Hazardous Materials Information Review Regulations.

Order Prohibiting the Development of an Aerodrome in the Cities of Mascouche and Terrebonne

Notice is hereby given that, on March 4, 2016, the Minister of Transport, pursuant to section 4.31 of the Aeronautics Act, issued an order to prohibit the development of an aerodrome within the limits of the City of Mascouche or the City of Terrebonne, in the Province of Quebec, as the Minister was of the opinion that such a development was not in the public interest. A person is therefore not to develop an aerodrome within the limits of the cities of Mascouche or Terrebonne unless the person meets the conditions of the Order, such as carries out the consultation process set out in the schedule to the Order.

DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS

DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS ACT

Notice of intent to amend the Veterans Burial Regulations, 2005

Notice is hereby given that Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC) intends to recommend to the Governor in Council that amendments be made to the Veterans Burial Regulations, 2005, pursuant to section 5 of the Department of Veterans Affairs Act.

Background

VAC provides funeral and burial assistance for eligible veterans through its Funeral and Burial Program. The Program provides financial assistance for funeral services, burial or cremation and military-style grave markers or inscription on private grave markers. The Last Post Fund (LPF) Corporation, a national, non-profit organization founded in 1909, administers the Program on behalf of the Department and in compliance with the Veterans Burial Regulations, 2005 (the Regulations).

When a veteran dies of a service-related disability, the veteran's estate or family is eligible to receive financial assistance for funeral, burial and grave marking as a matter-of-right, up to the maximum amount set out in the Regulations. Assistance is also provided when the financial resources in a veteran's estate are not sufficient to pay funeral, burial and grave marking expenses, as determined through a means test. The test assesses the value of the veteran's estate and, if applicable, that of his or her survivor (i.e. the veteran's spouse or common-law partner). Assistance is paid on a sliding scale based on need, and full or partial assistance is paid up to the maximum amount set out in the Regulations. In situations where there is a survivor, the Regulations allow the family home, a car and $12,015 to be exempt from the means-tested calculation.

In the 2015 Speech from the Throne, the Government of Canada committed to do more for veterans and their families, in gratitude for their service. The mandate letter of the Minister of Veterans Affairs and Associate Minister of National Defence included the responsibility of ensuring that all veterans receive a dignified burial.

Issue

The main issue that would be addressed through proposed regulatory amendments, which would help to enhance the services and benefits provided for eligible veterans under the Funeral and Burial Program, is the Survivor Estate Exemption Amount.

Survivor estate exemption amount

In 1995, the survivor estate exemption amount, prescribed in the Regulations, was $24,030 and subject to annual indexation. However, during that year the amount was reduced by half to $12,015 and annual indexation ceased. The amount has not been adjusted since that time. While the cost of living has steadily increased since 1995, and is likely to continue to increase, the real value of the survivor estate exemption amount has decreased, and will continue to decrease with each passing year. As a result, fewer applicants are qualifying for assistance to help defray the funeral, burial and grave marking expenses of their loved ones, leaving more and more surviving spouses or common-law partners, with already limited financial means, having to pay for these costs.

If the 1995 survivor estate exemption amount of $24,030 had continued to be indexed each year (using the Consumer Price Index), it would be $35,279 today.

Also, there is an issue with the name of the Regulations. The current name was introduced in 2005 when the Veterans Burial Regulations, 1995 and the Last Post Fund Regulations, 1995 were repealed and integrated into the current Veterans Burial Regulations, 2005.

The addition of “2005” to the title may have been reasonable when the Regulations were introduced to be consistent with the naming of the regulations that were being repealed at that time. However, having “2005” in the title is no longer necessary and may cause confusion. Some veterans, families and stakeholders may think that the Veterans Burial Regulations, 2005 are outdated, and this may cause them to search for an updated “2016” version. Also, adding the year that the Regulations were introduced to the title is not consistent with the naming conventions of other VAC regulations.

Objective

The main objective of these proposed regulatory amendments is to help ensure that a surviving spouse or common-law partner is better financially situated to move forward following the veteran's death.

A secondary objective of the proposed regulatory amendments is to clarify and simplify the title of the Regulations.

Description and rationale

The following changes to the Regulations are proposed:

Survivor estate exemption amount

The proposed regulatory amendments would increase the survivor's estate exemption amount from $12,015 to $35,279, and would provide annual indexation to this amount, to begin the year after implementation of the regulatory changes.

As an increased amount of money would be exempt from the means-tested calculations, the spouse or common-law partner would be able to retain more financial resources following the veteran's death and make a more gradual transition to a new financial situation (i.e. loss of the veteran's income). The amendments would also enable some survivors, who would have been denied assistance with the lower survivor estate exemption amount, to now qualify for funeral and burial assistance. It is hoped that these changes would help to alleviate some of the financial pressures and worries that the survivors may be facing at an already difficult and emotional time in their lives.

Also, to provide clarity and simplicity, the amendments would remove “2005” from the title of the Regulations.

These proposed regulatory amendments would create no costs or administrative burden for veterans, their survivors or businesses.

Implementation, enforcement and service standards

It is being proposed that these regulatory changes would come into force on October 1, 2016. There would be no impact to the delivery of the Funeral and Burial Program as a result of these regulatory changes. The existing service delivery infrastructure would continue to be utilized. No additional staff or administrative funding would be required by VAC or the LPF Corporation to implement these regulatory changes. The Program's terms and conditions, policies, directives, business processes and application forms would be revised to reflect the changes. VAC and LPF staff would be trained on these updates. Ongoing communications with LPF staff, as the third party provider, would be an integral component for the successful implementation of the changes.

Communication materials would be created to advise key stakeholders, veterans and their families of the changes to the Funeral and Burial Program. Changes would also be communicated through the LPF Corporation's Web site and publications.

Upon the expected date of the coming into force of these regulatory changes, namely October 1, 2016, applications would continue to be processed by the LPF Corporation, which would administer the Funeral and Burial Program using the revised Regulations and policies.

These regulatory changes would not have an impact on legislative or regulatory compliance. In its ongoing efforts to support program performance, VAC currently has a performance measurement strategy in place for the Funeral and Burial Program. Ongoing reporting would ensure data is accurately captured to portray the Program's performance, support future evaluations and help the Program in achieving its ultimate outcome: that Canadian veterans and those who died in service be honored and the memory of their achievements and sacrifices be preserved.

In addition, VAC's Audit and Evaluation Division conducts annual audits and evaluations of VAC programs. Results are published regularly on VAC's external Web site.

VAC also has established specific service standards for the Funeral and Burial Program, including providing timely decisions to applicants for funeral and burial assistance. The regulatory changes would have no impact on these service standards, allowing them to be maintained at the current average times.

Public comment period

Interested parties who wish to comment on the proposed amendments are invited to submit their comments, within 30 days after publication of this notice in the Canada Gazette, Part I, to Katherine Morrow, Manager, Cabinet Business Unit, Policy Division, Veterans Affairs Canada, by mail (P.O. Box 7700, Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island C1A 8M9), by telephone (902-370-4638) or by email (Katherine.Morrow@vac-acc.gc.ca).
