Inventory of Reforms

Report on Proposals for a New Commercial Tenancy Act

Year:
2009

Description:
The Commercial Tenancy Act Reform Project began in the summer of 2007, with a mandate to study British Columbia’s major commercial leasing statute and to make recommendations for its reform. Work on the first phase of the project progressed throughout the fall of 2007 and the winter and spring of 2008, concentrating on examining the deficiencies of the current legislation and studying leading models for reform. This phase of the project culminated in the publication in September 2008 of the Consultation Paper on Proposals for a New Commercial Tenancy Act. The consultation paper asked for public comment on fifty‐eight tentative proposals for reform. After a six‐month consultation period ended in March 2009, the second phase of the project began. This phase focused on considering the responses to the consultation paper, settling the project’s final recommendations, and implementing those regulations in draft legislation. The Report on Proposals for a New Commercial Tenancy Act is the culmination of all this work on the project.
