9.1. The fees provided for in section 2, as well as the travel allowance provided for in section 7, are adjusted on 1 January of each year by a rate corresponding to the annual change in the average all-items Consumer Price Index for Québec without alcoholic beverages, tobacco products, smoker’s supplies and recreational cannabis for the 12-month period ending on 30 September of the year preceding that for which the fees and travel allowance must be adjusted.
Such fees and travel allowance, so adjusted, are decreased to the nearest dollar if they include a dollar fraction under $0.50; they are increased to the nearest dollar if they include a dollar fraction equal to or over $0.50.
The Minister responsible for municipal affairs informs the public of the result of the adjustment made under this section in Part 1 of the Gazette officielle du Québec and by any other means the Minister considers appropriate.
