Disposition versions
4. The Authority’s president and chief executive officer is appointed by the National Assembly, on the recommendation of the Prime Minister and with the approval of at least two-thirds of its Members, from among the persons declared qualified to hold that office by a selection committee composed of the Secretary of the Conseil du trésor, the Deputy Minister of Municipal Affairs and Land Occupancy, the Deputy Minister of Justice or their representatives, an advocate recommended by the Bâtonnier of the Province of Québec and a chartered professional accountant recommended by the president of the Ordre des comptables professionnels agréés du Québec.
The Chair of the Conseil du trésor publishes a notice inviting interested persons to apply for the office of president and chief executive officer or to propose the name of a person they consider qualified to hold that office in accordance with the procedure the Chair determines.
The selection committee promptly evaluates the candidates on the basis of their knowledge, particularly in public contract matters, their experience and their qualifications, according to the criteria determined in Schedule 1. The committee presents to the Chair of the Conseil du trésor a report in which it lists the candidates it has met whom it considers qualified to hold the office of president and chief executive officer. All information and documents regarding the candidates and the proceedings of the committee are confidential.
When the evaluation is concluded, if fewer than three candidates are considered qualified to hold the office of president and chief executive officer, the Chair of the Conseil du trésor must publish a new invitation for applications.
The members of the committee receive no remuneration, except in the cases and on the conditions that may be determined by the Government. They are, however, entitled to the reimbursement of expenses to the extent determined by the Government.
The Government may amend Schedule 1.
