Notice of Commission Deemed Approval – Housekeeping Amendments to the CIPF Coverage Policies and By-law Number 1 – Canadian Investor Protection Fund (CIPF)

The Ontario Securities Commission did not object to the classification as housekeeping of CIPF’s proposed amendments to the CIPF Coverage Policies and By-law Number 1 (the Housekeeping Amendments). The Housekeeping Amendments are necessary to address editorial and non-material typos (e.g., spacing, capitalization, consistency in terminology). The Housekeeping Amendments also reflect the name change of the New Self-Regulatory Organization of Canada (New SRO) to the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization (CIRO). 

The Housekeeping Amendments are deemed to be approved and become effective on July 27, 2023. 

In addition, the Alberta Securities Commission; the Autorité des marchés financiers; the British Columbia Securities Commission; the Financial and Consumer Affairs Authority of Saskatchewan; the Financial and Consumer Services Commission of New Brunswick; the Manitoba Securities Commission; the Northwest Territories Office of the Superintendent of Securities; the Nova Scotia Securities Commission; the Nunavut Office of the Superintendent of Securities; the Office of the Superintendent of Securities, Digital Government and Services, Newfoundland and Labrador; the Office of the Yukon Superintendent of Securities; and the Prince Edward Island Office of the Superintendent of Securities (together with the Ontario Securities Commission, the Regulators) did not object to the classification of the Housekeeping Amendments and therefore the Housekeeping Amendments were deemed approved or non-objected to.
