274. The Secretary of the Conseil du trésor may, on behalf of the Autorité des marchés publics (in this section referred to as “the Authority”) and until the date preceding that on which the president and chief executive officer of the Authority is to take office, enter into any contract the Secretary considers necessary to establish that body and foster the soundness of its activities and operations. For those purposes, the Secretary may make any necessary financial commitment for the amount and the term the Secretary considers appropriate.
However, as regards human resources, the Secretary of the Conseil du trésor may only recruit the members of the Authority’s administrative staff and designate the positions of, and assign the functions to be exercised by, those employees.
Despite section 14, the Authority’s first by-law regarding the adoption of a staffing plan and the procedure for appointing and criteria for selecting the members of the administrative staff is made by the Secretary of the Conseil du trésor.
