Section 282 — Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations: Submissions concerning assessment

The commercial transporter may submit written submissions to the Minister within 30 days after being served with an assessment of an administration fee. If submissions are made, the Minister must consider the submissions, confirm, vary or cancel the assessment and give written notice of the final decision to the commercial transporter. In considering the submissions, the Minister must take into account whether the commercial transporter was, before the foreign national was carried to Canada, notified under section 270 that the foreign national may have been a person prescribed under section 258.1 or a person who did not hold an electronic travel authorization when one was required under section 7.01 or 7.1 . If no submissions are made within the 30-day period, the assessment is final and the commercial transporter is liable for the assessment at the end of that period. If the Minister confirms an assessment under subsection (2), the commercial transporter is liable for the assessment on the date the notice is sent.
