Section 171

Not in force
171. The president and executive director may be assisted by the number of assistant president and executive directors determined by Santé Québec’s board of directors. They are appointed by the board of directors.
The board of directors must consult the institution board of directors before appointing an assistant president and executive director, unless the standards and scales prescribed under section 59 provide for the participation of members of the institution board of directors for the selection of an assistant president and executive director.
An assistant president and executive director exercises the functions and powers of the president and executive director if the latter is absent or unable to act. If the position of president and executive director is vacant, an assistant president and executive director acts in the interim until a new president and executive director is appointed.
Where more than one assistant president and executive director has been appointed, Santé Québec’s board of directors designates which one of them is to assume the functions referred to in the third paragraph.
The person who holds the position of assistant president and executive director must exercise the functions of office on a full-time basis within the institution.
