Section 22 Disposition versions

2022-08-24

22. The Commission may, with the agreement of the trainee, the employer and, as the case may be, the educational institution or professional order, appoint a person to attempt to settle the complaint to the satisfaction of the parties.

Only a person who has not already acted in the matter in question in another capacity may be appointed for this purpose by the Commission.

Any verbal or written information gathered by the person appointed under the first paragraph must remain confidential. That person may not be compelled to disclose anything that has been revealed to them or that has come to their knowledge in the performance of their duties, or to produce before a court or before any body or person fulfilling a judicial or quasi judicial function any document made or obtained in the performance of their duties, except in penal matters, where the court considers that such proof is necessary to ensure a full and complete defence. Despite section 9 of the Act respecting Access to documents held by public bodies and the Protection of personal information (chapter A-2.1), no person has a right of access to any such document.
