Before being approved under section 8, a by-law concerning transport brokerage services under a government contract adopted by a brokerage permit holder must be approved by at least two thirds of the permit holder’s subscribers in attendance at a special meeting where at least one fourth of the subscribers are present.
The special meeting takes place following a notice sent to the subscribers, at least 15 days before the date of the meeting, at the last address given to the brokerage permit holder. The notice must state the date, time and place of the meeting, and the agenda. It must also mention any new by-law or amendment to a by-law that may be approved at the meeting. The notice must be accompanied by the by-law to be submitted for approval at the meeting.
In the case of a by-law referred to in the first paragraph that accompanies an application for a brokerage permit, and for the purposes of the first and second paragraphs, “subscribers” means all the operators of heavy vehicles registered in the bulk trucking register who, during the subscription period, signed a contract with the applicant for the brokerage services offered under the permit to which the application refers.
