261. The council shall, by regulation, adopt a judicial code of ethics.
However, it must previously call a meeting of the judges to whom the code of ethics applies to consult them on the draft regulation.
A regulation made under this section is published in the Gazette officielle du Québec at least thirty days before it is submitted to the approval of the Government. If it is so approved, it comes into force on the date of its publication in the Gazette officielle du Québec or on a later date fixed therein.
