Minister’s message

The Honourable Seamus O’Regan, PC, MP. Minister of Natural Resources

On behalf of Natural Resources Canada, I am pleased to present our report on fees for fiscal year 2018 to 2019, my organization’s second annual report under the Service Fees Act.

The act provides a modern legislative framework that enables cost-effective delivery of services and, through better reporting to Parliament, improves transparency and oversight.

Last year, a detailed listing of individual fees under the department’s authority, along with anticipated increases, was added to the reporting requirements.

This year’s report provides more detail on each fee, such as the type and rate of adjustment, the service standard and the performance result. This information provides additional context on each fee, in the spirit of open and transparent fee management.

I welcome the increased transparency and oversight that the Service Fees Act’s reporting regime embodies. I will continue to lead my department’s transition to this modern framework.

The Honourable Seamus O’Regan, PC, MP.
Minister of Natural Resources

About this report

This report, which is tabled under section 20 of the Service Fees Act Footnote 1 and section 4.2.8 of the Directive on Charging and Special Financial Authorities, contains information about the fees that Natural Resources Canada had the authority to charge in the 2018 to 2019 fiscal year.

This report contains information about all fees that are under Natural Resources Canada’s authority, even if some or all of the fees are collected by another department.

The information reported includes fees that:

  • fall under the Service Fees Act
  • are exempt from the Service Fees Act

The information covers fees set by:

  • contract
  • market-base, auction or both
  • act, regulation or fees notice

For fees set by the following mechanisms, the report provides totals only:

  • contract
  • market-base, auction or both

For fees set by act, regulation or fees notice, the report provides totals for fee groupings, as well as detailed information for each individual fee.

Although the fees charged by Natural Resources Canada under the Access to Information Act are subject to the Service Fees Act, they are not included in this report. Information on Natural Resources Canada’s access to information fees for fiscal year 2018 to 2019 can be found in our access to information report, which is posted on Natural Resources Canada website.

Remissions

A remission is a partial or full return of a fee to a fee payer who paid for a service for which a department deemed that the service standard was not met.

Under the Service Fees Act, departments must develop policies for determining whether a service standard has been met and for determining how much of a fee will be remitted to a fee payer. This requirement does not take effect until April 1, 2020. This report therefore includes only those remissions issued under Natural Resources Canada’s enabling legislation. It does not include remissions issued under the Service Fees Act.

Overall totals, by fee type

The following table presents the total revenue, cost and remissions for all fees that Natural Resources Canada had the authority to charge in fiscal year 2018 to 2019, by fee type.

Service standard

Client services provided by the National Non-Destructive Testing Certification Body (NDTCB): Candidates’ application forms are processed within two weeks of receipt. This period is advertised on application forms 'Instructions for Candidates', available in hard copy or electronically from the NRCan Non-Destructive Testing website. All candidates have this information before applying. (Note: Assessment of foreign applications or unusual training and experience situations may require more time.)

Examination results are usually available three weeks from the date of receipt of the examination package. This period is clearly specified in the 'letter of approval' issued to the candidate to permit him/her to challenge an examination.

Performance result

The progress of each client application is recorded and tracked throughout the process: date of receipt, date of review, date of written responses. To summarize performance results against the stated Service Standard, fully completed client applications without errors, or omissions, are normally being processed within the stated standards approximately 80% of the time.

Of note, there has been a recent and significant increase in the number of new applicants for certification requests, which is being managed.
