S-30.01 - Act respecting public transit authorities
Section 40
Disposition versions
40. The board of directors shall fix, by by-law, the remuneration or indemnity of its members and the additional remuneration or indemnity of the chair and vice-chair of the transit authority. The by-law may have retroactive effect to 1 January of the year in which it was adopted and vary according to whether participation is at the meetings of the board or at one of its committees.
The indemnity shall be paid as reimbursement for the part of the expenses attached to the office which are not reimbursed pursuant to sections 43 and 44. The compensation may not exceed one-half of the remuneration.
However, the application of section 19.1 of the Act respecting the remuneration of elected municipal officers (chapter T-11.001) may prohibit a transit authority from paying remuneration or an indemnity or compel it to reduce the amount thereof. As well, contravening the Act respecting elections and referendums in municipalities (chapter E-2.2) may entail, for a member, the loss of remuneration or an indemnity if that person loses the right to attend the meetings of the board as a member.
