Administrative Burden Baseline: Update 2020
The Administrative Burden Baseline provides Canadians with a clear metric of the total number of requirements in federal regulations and associated forms that impose administrative burden on business. This baseline count contributes to the openness and transparency of the federal regulatory system. Administrative burden includes planning, collecting, processing and reporting of information, completing forms and retaining data required by the federal government to comply with a regulation.
All federal regulations administered by the Agriculture and Agri-Food Portfolio that have requirements that impose administrative burden on business are identified below. The total 2020 count is 1,971. The total June 30th 2014 baseline count was 1,972.
Between July 1, 2019 and June 30, 2020, the Agriculture and Agri-Food Portfolio's total count of administrative burden requirements remained unchanged. There were no regulatory changes affecting the count of administrative burden requirements in any Agriculture and Agri-Food Portfolio regulations. Furthermore, there were no changes to forms or schedules attached to or associated with any regulations.
