S-2.4 - Act respecting civil protection to promote disaster resilience

Section 84 Disposition versions

2024-05-28

84. A person mobilized under measures established under this Act or whose services have been required or accepted in order to respond to a disaster, to another event that compromises human safety or to the imminence of any of those events is, for the purposes of third-party civil liability, deemed to be a subordinate of the authority under which the person is placed. The same applies to a person participating in a training activity or a civil protection exercise.

Despite the first paragraph,

(1)  subordinates of the State or of legal persons established in the public interest do not cease to act in the exercise of their functions solely because they are placed temporarily under the command of another authority;

(2)  a person mobilized or whose services have been required or accepted under section 18 or 28 is deemed to be a subordinate of the local municipality that was unable to or failed to act; and

(3)  a person who was mobilized or whose services have been required or accepted during the deployment of cooperative measures by Québec authorities or by authorities outside Québec is deemed to be a subordinate of the Government.

2024, c. 18, s. 1.
