REGULATORY IMPACT ANALYSIS STATEMENT
(This statement is not part of the Regulations.)
Issues
In an internal review of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations (IRPR), the Canada Border Services Agency (the Agency) identified several provisions that contained minor drafting errors (typographical or grammatical errors) in the French version of the Regulations.
Objectives
The objective of these amendments is to correct minor drafting errors (typographical or grammatical errors) in the IRPR.
Description
Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations
In the French version of subsection 4(3) of the IRPR, the word “paragraphe” is spelled “pararaphe.” The amendment would correct this spelling error by adding the missing “g.”
In the French version of section 15(c), there is a missing space between “criminel ou” and is rendered “criminelou.” The amendment would correct this error by putting in a space between the two words.
In the French version of section 24.3, the word “traitée” is incorrectly spelled as “traitéé” with an extra accent on the second “e.” The amendment would correct this error by removing the extra accent on the second “e.”
“One-for-One” Rule
The “One-for-One” Rule does not apply to these regulatory amendments, as there is no change in administrative costs or burden to business.
Small business lens
The small business lens does not apply to these regulatory amendments, as there are no costs to small business.
Rationale
The amendments help to correct or improve the clarity of the regulatory text, and do not impose any costs on the Government of Canada, Canadians or stakeholders.
