Compliance Audit Committee
Municipalities are required to establish a Compliance Audit Committee as outlined in the Municipal Elections Act.
The Compliance Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing applications requesting an audit of a candidate's or third party advertiser's election campaign finances.
Additional responsibilities include:
- Reviewing reports filed by the Clerk;
- Appointing an auditor when the Committee grants an application;
- Reviewing reports filed by an auditor in response to an application;
- Determining if legal proceedings are justified in light of the findings of an auditor's report; and
- Appointing a prosecutor to commence legal proceedings where it has been determined that legal action is appropriate.
If you feel that a candidate for the Office of Regional Chair has not followed the election campaign financing rules in the Municipal Elections Act, then you may submit an application for a compliance audit.
