REGULATORY IMPACT ANALYSIS STATEMENT

(This statement is not part of the Regulations.)

Description

The Technical Amendments Regulations (Customs Tariff) 2005-1 amends the List of Tariff Provisions set out in the schedule to the Customs Tariff to correct minor, technical errors and to align English and French texts.

Alternatives

No alternatives were considered. A regulation pursuant to section 13 of the Customs Tariff is the appropriate method in this instance of correcting technical errors inadvertently introduced into the schedule.

Benefits and Costs

The amendments contained in this Regulation are essentially technical and, inter alia, ensure consistency between the English and French versions of the Customs Tariff.

Consultation

Since the amendments involving English and French alignment and those correcting spelling errors are technical and do not involve any new policy or financial implications, no consultations were undertaken.

Compliance and Enforcement

Compliance is not an issue. The Canada Border Services Agency is responsible for the administration of the customs and tariff legislation and regulations.
