Revised Compliance and Enforcement Policies and Procedure
The Ontario Energy Board has announced a revised policy and procedure for its regulatory compliance responsibilities.
Going forward, all units of Regulatory Policy & Compliance will be engaged in the Board’s compliance and monitoring responsibilities. Compliance is more clearly delineated from enforcement and a separate enforcement process has been created
With these changes the position of Chief Compliance Officer is being eliminated.
We believe a clear delineation between compliance and enforcement is important and enhances our ability to monitor and enforce the OEB’s rules and codes. It also provides clearer guidance to licensees and other stakeholders regarding the range of compliance and enforcement procedures available to the Board. The establishment of a distinct enforcement process reinforces the Board’s commitment to consumer protection.
The Board has also made a number of organizational changes to support its implementation of the Green Energy and Green Economy Act. As part of these Brian Hewson has been appointed Senior Manager, Networks & Smart Grid and Peter Fraser will become Senior Manager, Infrastructure & Renewables.
