R-8.3 - Act respecting the process of negotiation of collective agreements and the settlement of disputes in the municipal sector
Section 39
Disposition versions
39. On receiving the notice provided for in section 38, the minister responsible for the administration of the Labour Code (chapter C-27) must appoint a mediator to help the parties settle their dispute. The Minister may act on the Minister’s own initiative if no notice has been received on the 15th day after the day of expiry of either of the time limits provided for in that section, as applicable.
Despite the first paragraph, at all times, the Minister must appoint a mediator on the joint application of the parties.
Sections 6 to 8 concerning mediation apply, with the necessary modifications.
The mediator’s report provided for in section 7 must be given to the arbitrator appointed under section 44.
