Community Safety and Well-Being Plans under the Community Safety and Policing Act, 2019

Regulation Number(s):
N/A
Instrument Type:
Regulation - Minister
Bill or Act:
Community Safety and Policing Act, 2019
Summary of Proposal:
In March 2019, the government passed the Community Safety and Policing Act, 2019 (CSPA), as part of the Comprehensive Ontario Police Services Act, 2019. Once in force, the CSPA will replace the current Police Services Act (PSA). The CSPA is an opportunity to modernize policing and enhance community safety in Ontario.

As part of the work to bring the Act into force, the Ministry of the Solicitor General (SolGen) is working on regulations on a number of matters.

At this time, SolGen is requesting public and stakeholder input on a proposed regulation related to a review and revision period for community safety and well-being plans.

Municipalities are required to develop and adopt community safety and well-being plans, working in partnership with police services/boards and various other sectors, including health/mental health, education, community/social services, and children/youth services.

SolGen is proposing to set the time period for municipalities to review and, if appropriate, revise their CSWB plans.

For more detail, please see the attached draft regulation.

SolGen welcomes your comments and feedback.
Analysis of Regulatory Impact:
SolGen is proposing to set the time period for municipalities to review and, if appropriate, revise their CSWB plans.
