7. A police force in Québec issues, after a written application to that effect, a positive or negative search certificate to any partner-driver. The verification by the police force must be in regard to any sexual misconduct, failure to provide necessities of life, criminal operation of a motor vehicle, violent behaviour, criminal negligence, fraud, theft, arson and drug or narcotic-related offences.
In this Regulation,(1) “positive search certificate” means a document attesting that the data banks accessible to the police force contain information making it possible to ascertain the existence of an impediment referred to in section 30;
(2) “negative search certificate” means a document showing the absence of an impediment referred to in section 30.
A certificate referred to in the first paragraph must bear the signature of a person authorized to complete it on behalf of a police force in Québec, the contact information of that police force, an identification number and the date on which it was produced. The certificate must contain the name, date of birth and address of the applicant and specify the nature of any indictment or conviction for a criminal or indictable offence that constitutes an impediment under section 30.
