133. The members of a certified association or a class of such members may, at a general meeting of the association called for such purpose, ratify a by-law made by the association to determine the amount of the contribution required to cover the costs relating to the duties and obligations deriving from certification or from their association’s membership in a coordination or development chamber. The amount of the contribution may be calculated according to the volume of the product marketed, the area under cultivation or operation or other equivalent criteria accepted by the Régie. The by-law may also fix the rate of interest required where the payment of the contribution is late.
The association shall inform every person or partnership affected by the certification of its intention to pass such a by-law.
The Régie may assess, in the manner it considers appropriate, the opinion of the interested persons regarding the by-law and grant its approval. The Régie shall publish every approved by-law in the Gazette officielle du Québec. The by-law comes into force 15 days after the publication or on the date determined by the Régie. Every person or partnership affected by the certification is required to pay the contribution.
