Notice from the Office of the Secretary - Practice Guideline - Case Management Timeline for Enforcement Proceedings
TORONTO, Jan. 26, 2015 /CNW/ - The Ontario Securities Commission (the "Commission") has approved a practice guideline in respect of the Commission's case management procedures (the "Practice Guideline").
The Practice Guideline provides a case management timeline for enforcement proceedings before the tribunal and reflects the Commission's continued efforts to enhance the early identification and resolution of preliminary matters to ensure that adjudicative proceedings can be brought on for final resolution more rapidly and more cost effectively.
The Practice Guideline was developed in accordance with the Commission's Rules of Procedure (2014), 37 O.S.C.B. 4168 and the Statutory Powers Procedure Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. S.22.
The Practice Guideline is effective February 1, 2015 and will apply to all enforcement proceedings before the Commission, including those commenced by a Notice of Hearing issued prior to that date. A copy of the Practice Guideline is available at www.osc.gov.on.ca.
