45.7. Each minister must ensure that the bodies other than budget-funded bodies under the minister’s responsibility respect their annual budget and multi-year budgetary estimates.
Where a minister is of the opinion that a body under the minister’s responsibility will not be able to respect its annual budget, the minister may require the body to draw up corrective measures, in accordance with the laws applicable to the body, and submit them to the minister for approval within the time the minister determines. If, in the minister’s opinion, the measures are insufficient, the minister may recommend an expenditure reduction method for the purposes of section 77.3 of the Public Administration Act (chapter A-6.01) to the Chair of the Conseil du trésor and the Minister of Finance.
