4.2.3 Government Responses to Parliamentary Standing Committee
Reports

Standing committees in both the House of Commons and the Senate may issue reports on a policy matter and request that the Government provide a response to the report’s recommendations. As with Private Members Business, Ministers are assigned to prepare the Government Response to standing committee reports related to their areas of responsibility. The abbreviated MR template attached in Annex Band described under the Private Member’s Business section above should be used to set out the proposed approach for responding to the parliamentary standing committee report. The proposed Government Response should be attached to the MR for Ministers consideration.

As standing committees generally request that the Government provide a response within a specific number of days, drafters should factor in these timelines in addition to those of the Cabinet decision-making system in developing the MC and Government Response.
