Under the current legislation, if a business wishes to suspend its operations because of the cyclical or seasonal nature of the service, two things must be taken into consideration.
I'll answer in English.
They can allow their insurance to lapse. It's a cheap way of doing things. If they do not have valid insurance, they cannot have a valid licence and they cannot operate. Some cyclical operators do that. It's easy. Others, for whatever reason, choose to keep their insurance up to date. Even if they have a seasonal operation, they pay insurance at whatever rate for the entire year, but they don't wish to have their licence necessarily operational. They therefore seek an exemption from the agency in terms of offering services to these communities. They don't wish to operate on a year-round, continuous basis, and they seek a discontinuation of their licence. The agency normally has to consider the merits of that proposal. So there is both the application process by the seasonal operator and there is the consideration of the agency of whether to accept it or not.
What we're proposing is that those seasonal operators would no longer be subject to that process. They would be carved out and exempted. They could operate a seasonal operation, on a seasonal basis, as long as they have a valid licence, without having to seek an exemption from the agency to terminate that operation on a seasonal basis.
