flag Liberals accept Conservative changes to Bill C-15, adding oversight to new cabinet powers for temporary regulatory exemptions.

flag The federal Liberals have accepted Conservative amendments to Bill C-15, adding safeguards to new cabinet powers allowing temporary regulatory exemptions for innovation. flag The changes require 30-day public consultations, dual ministerial approval, equal rules for all participants, and a 90-day parliamentary report, with certain laws like conflict of interest and accountability remaining exempt. flag The move follows concerns over unchecked executive authority, with opposition leaders criticizing the original "regulatory sandbox" provision as a threat to democratic oversight. flag The amended bill, fast-tracked through committee, must be reported by Wednesday, with final voting pending.
