109. The Commission shall enter into a contract with Santé Québec, the Nunavik Regional Board of Health and Social Services or the Cree Board of Health and Social Services of James Bay, as the case may be, whereby each of them undertakes to provide the services required to implement the occupational health programs in its territory or to provide such services to the institutions or categories of institutions identified in the contract.
The contract entered into with Santé Québec must set out the specific undertakings for each health region in its territory.
However, at the Commission’s request, the Minister of Health and Social Services may in exceptional cases allow Santé Québec, the Nunavik Regional Board of Health and Social Services or the Cree Board of Health and Social Services of James Bay, as the case may be, to make a similar undertaking with regard to a territory, other than its own, which is identified in the contract.
Santé Québec, the Nunavik Regional Board of Health and Social Services or the Cree Board of Health and Social Services of James Bay, as the case may be, shall designate, in the contract, any person operating a hospital centre or local community service centre that dispenses, among the services referred to in the first paragraph, those which Santé Québec, the Nunavik Regional Board of Health and Social Services or the Cree Board of Health and Social Services of James Bay, as the case may be, is unable to provide; that person shall be bound by the contract.
The contract must be consistent with the provisions of the standard contract; it may also set out occupational health priorities applicable to the territory or to the institutions or categories of institutions identified in the contract.
The contract shall be filed by Santé Québec, the Nunavik Regional Board of Health and Social Services or the Cree Board of Health and Social Services of James Bay, as the case may be, with the Minister of Health and Social Services.
