Section 19 Disposition versions

2023-10-05

19. On a written request by a motor vehicle manufacturer, the Minister may determine the number of credits that it must accumulate for a particular model year by replacing, in the equations in sections 13 and 14, the average provided for therein by the total number of new motor vehicles of that same model year, entered in the register on the date of the calculation, that the manufacturer sold or leased.

The Minister may follow up on the motor vehicle manufacturer’s request if the manufacturer demonstrates, to the Minister’s satisfaction, that the request is based on one of the following situations:

(1)  the total number of new motor vehicles of the model year covered by the request, that it sold or leased, has, for circumstances beyond its control and that it could not foresee, diminished by not less than 30% in relation to the preceding model year;

(2)  the number of new motor vehicles of the model year covered by the request, that it sold or leased, makes it impossible to achieve the number of credits that the motor vehicle manufacturer must accumulate, even if the manufacturer sold only zero-emission motor vehicles.

The motor vehicle manufacturer’s request must be submitted not later than 30 days before the date provided for in the first paragraph of section 10 of the Act.

As of model year 2022, a request made under the first paragraph may only be submitted for 2 model years of a series of 8 consecutive model years, unless it is based on the situation referred to in subparagraph 2 of the second paragraph.
