The Minister may also require a municipality to include a similar stipulation for the benefit of such small enterprises in any contracts it awards in carrying out an agreement made with the Minister of Transport for the execution of road works referred to in paragraph i of section 3.

In carrying out an agreement referred to in the second paragraph, a municipality may even include the stipulation in contracts which also include works other than those provided for in the agreement.

For the purposes of this paragraph, the Minister may designate a person to inquire into the activities and operation of the association holding the brokerage permit and report to the Minister. Failure to comply with the Minister’s direction is cause for revocation of the association’s brokerage permit.

The Minister may, on the conditions the Minister determines, issue a temporary permit to stand in lieu of a brokerage permit issued under the Transport Act to an association that has applied for a brokerage permit under that Act and enable the subscribers to the brokerage service of that association to participate in the performance of contracts referred to in the first paragraph until the decision of the Commission des transports on the association’s application for a brokerage permit takes effect. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Minister may designate a person to inquire into the activities, operation and representativeness of the association, to hold such consultations as the Minister determines and to report to the Minister. The temporary permit may be revoked or suspended by the Minister.
