Regulation Review

NEWRules of Practice and Procedure Review

The Commission, supported by CER Staff, is conducting a comprehensive review of the Rules of Practice and Procedure (the Rules) to update the regulations. A comprehensive update to the Rules is needed to align with the Canadian Energy Regulator Act (CER Act), which came into force in 2019. The update will reflect the CER’s new governance structure, and formalize the practices, processes, and terminology which have evolved since the Rules were first in effect. In broad terms, the objective for the Rules Review is to deliver regulations that:

  • align with the CER Act, including objectives outlined in the Act’s preamble, such as the commitment to Reconciliation;
  • enhance competitiveness through predictable and timely processes; and
  • modernize practices and procedures.

A Discussion Paper has been posted to highlight potential changes and improvements to the Rules. Additional information on the Rules review and details on engagement are available on the CER Dialogue website.
