Broiler Hatching Egg Levies Sunset Date

Summary#

This is the Order Amending the Canadian Broiler Hatching Egg Marketing Levies Order (SOR/2023-111). It sets a clear expiry date: subsections 2(1) and 2(2) of the levies order will stop applying on June 23, 2024. The order was registered on May 30, 2023 and published in the Canada Gazette on June 21, 2023.

What it does#

• Replaces subsection 2(3) of the Canadian Broiler Hatching Egg Marketing Levies Order to say that subsections 2(1) and 2(2) will cease to have effect on June 23, 2024.
• States that the amendment came into force on the day it was registered (May 30, 2023).

Who's affected#

• Canadian Hatching Egg Producers (the agency that made the order).
• Producers and businesses that are subject to the broiler hatching egg marketing levies — in other words, people or companies paying or collecting those levies.
• If you want to know exactly whether you are covered, the original levies order defines who is subject to the levies; this amendment only sets when parts of that order stop applying.

Why it matters#

• It gives a firm sunset date (June 23, 2024) for parts of the levy rules. That helps the agency and producers plan budgets and marketing activities.
• After that date, the specific levy rules in subsections 2(1) and 2(2) will no longer apply unless they are renewed or replaced.
• For most people, the practical effect is limited to those directly involved in broiler hatching egg marketing and the fees they pay or collect.
