Finance committee  Thank you for the question. In fact, two conditions are necessary. First, we have to get royal assent for the enabling bill. Second, the Agency has to be in a position to make the payment. So it depends on those two conditions.

April 25th, 2023Committee meeting

Pierre Leblanc

Finance committee  Thanks for the question. For most tax proposals it is, but here—with something like the grocery rebate or something paid out of the GST credit system—you're talking about refundable credits, so you're talking about amounts paid out of the consolidated revenue fund. The CRA's po
