143. The Minister shall consult the Advisory Committee before submitting for adoption a regulation which applies exclusively to the environmental and social protection regime of Category I or II lands, or Category III lands surrounded by Category I lands.
Similar consultation is required where the Minister intends to modify or not to apply recommendations of the Advisory Committee which apply only to the lands contemplated in the first paragraph.
The absence of consultation prescribed by this section cannot, however, have the effect of invalidating a regulation.
