Section 542 Disposition versions

542. A body is considered representative of the intermediate resources referred to in section 541 if the body groups together, on a Québec-wide scale, resources for children or resources for adults and if its membership represents either at least 20% of the total number of such resources throughout Québec or the number of resources required to serve at least 30% of the total number of users of such resources throughout Québec.

The same applies to a group of bodies representing such intermediate resources that intervene only on a local or regional scale, provided that the bodies as a group ensure the same representation as that required under the first paragraph.

A representative body must, on request, provide the Minister with up-to-date documents evidencing its establishment, and the names and addresses of its members.

A group must also provide up-to-date documents evidencing its constitution, the names and addresses of the bodies it represents and, for each of those bodies, the names and addresses of the members.

Where a representative body is a group of bodies, the group alone is authorized to represent each of the member bodies.

For the purposes of section 541, an intermediate resource may not be a member of more than one representative body other than a group.
