Section 83.4
Disposition versions
83.4. A fee is not adjusted if it was set in the preceding year or was increased in the preceding year otherwise than under section 83.3.
However, a fee that was set on 1 January of the preceding year is adjusted in accordance with section 83.3 if the fee is not subject to another adjustment measure.
A fee is not adjusted according to the adjustment rate provided for in section 83.3 if the estimated change in the cost of the public service for which it is collected is less than the adjustment rate, provided the estimated change was approved by the Minister of Finance. In such a case, the fee is adjusted, on 1 January following the approval given by the Minister, according to the rate corresponding to the estimated change in the cost of the public service.
Estimating the change in the cost of the public service falls to the body or the minister having the authority to set the fee.
On the recommendation of the Minister of Finance, the Government may exempt a fee or a set of fees from being adjusted under section 83.3.
