EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the notice.)
This notice has been issued to identify substances that will be or are being considered as alternatives to phosphorus compounds in household laundry detergents, dish-washing compounds and cleaners. This information will be used to determine whether there are hazards associated with these alternatives based on likely levels of exposure to the environment.
The Department of the Environment plans to conduct an assessment of an alternative substance to phosphorus compound, Glycine, N,N-bis(carboxymethyl)- (NTA), which is a substance included in Batch 8 of the Chemicals Management Plan’s “Challenge” initiative. Response on NTA (CAS RN 139-13-9) is excluded from this notice as it is already included in the CEPA 1999 section 71 notice for Batch 8. The Batch 8 notice will capture all import, manufacture and use of NTA, regardless of the product type.
Indicate clearly in writing the parts of your submission that are considered to be Confidential Business Information (CBI) by your company and provide justification for your CBI claims.

NOTICE OF VACANCY
CANADA REVENUE AGENCY
Chair, Board of Management (part-time position)
The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) is a large and complex organization that touches the lives of Canadians every day. Its mission is to administer tax, benefits and related programs and to ensure compliance on behalf of governments across Canada, thereby contributing to the ongoing economic and social well-being of Canadians. The CRA has a workforce of up to 44 000 employees located across Canada with an annual budget of over $4 billion. The CRA’s unique governance structure is comprised of a Minister, a Commissioner and Chief Executive Officer, and a Board of Management as defined in the Canada Revenue Agency Act.
The Board of Management was established in 1999 to support the Agency in achieving its mission and mandate. It is composed of 15 appointed members, including the Chair, and the Commissioner and CEO. The Board provides strategic guidance and oversees the organization and administration of the CRA and the management of its resources, services, property, personnel and contracts. It is expected to bring a forward-looking, strategic perspective to the CRA’s operations and foster sound management and service delivery.
The role of the Chair of the Board of Management is to facilitate highly effective Board performance. This is achieved by providing leadership in the management of the Board’s affairs and by ensuring that the Board fulfills its legislated mandate and responsibilities with full transparency and the application of sound governance practices. The Chair is responsible for guiding the Board in the fulfillment of its mandate and convening and presiding over Board meetings. He or she is required to participate in approximately five in-person meetings per year with the Board of Management, as well as participate in regular teleconferences and ad hoc meetings as needed.
The selected candidate must have a degree from a recognized university in a relevant field of study, or an acceptable combination of education, job-related training and/or experience. Training in board governance such as through the Institute of Corporate Directors would be an asset.
The successful candidate must possess the required experience and abilities within the following five core competencies:
- Organization and leadership: demonstrated leadership and decision-making qualities and organizational abilities to ensure that Board meetings are conducted in an efficient, effective, and focused manner.
- Communications and public relations: demonstrated communications experience in order to speak on behalf of the Board when required.
- Corporate governance: extensive experience in corporate governance, including the co-ordination of committees and the selection of committee members; capacity to ensure proper deliberations on all matters requiring the Board’s attention; demonstrated ability to ensure cohesion of direction and purpose at a policy and strategic level.
- Team- and consensus-building: demonstrated ability for team- and consensus-building; excellent listening skills in order to act as a sounding board for the Commissioner and CEO and other directors, and to build relationships with the members of the Board; ability to foster a constructive and harmonious relationship between the Board and Agency management.
- Corporate management: demonstrated experience in successfully managing large organizations in order to identify problems, review strategies, and maintain accountability; experience in board capacity development and succession planning.
In addition, knowledge of the roles and responsibilities of the Chair and of the Canada Revenue Agency Board of Management is required. The chosen candidate must also have knowledge of the Canada Revenue Agency’s mandate and of the legislative framework within which it operates. Good knowledge of the current best practices in corporate governance is essential.
The Chair must possess high ethical standards and integrity. He or she will have superior interpersonal skills and sound judgment, tact, as well as discretion and initiative.
Proficiency in both official languages is required.
The qualified candidate must be willing to travel throughout Canada to meetings of the Board of Management.
Pursuant to the CRA’s enabling legislation, the Chair of the Board must be a Canadian citizen or a permanent resident. The incumbent cannot be a member of the Senate or House of Commons or a member of a provincial or territorial legislature, or be employed on a full-time basis in the public service of Canada or of a province or territory.
The Government is committed to ensuring that its appointments are representative of Canada’s regions and official languages, as well as of women, Aboriginal peoples, disabled persons and visible minorities.
The selected candidate will be subject to the Conflict of Interest Act. For more information, please visit the Office of the Conflict of Interest and Ethics Commissioner’s Web site at http://parl.gc.ca/ciec-ccie.
The preferred candidate must comply with the Ethical Guidelines for Public Office Holders and the Guidelines for the Political Activities of Public Office Holders. The guidelines are available on the Governor in Council Appointments Web site, under “Reference Material,” at www.appointments-nominations.gc.ca.
This notice has been placed in the Canada Gazette to assist the Governor in Council in identifying qualified candidates for this position. It is not, however, intended to be the sole means of recruitment.
Further details about the Canada Revenue Agency and its activities can be found at www.cra-arc.gc.ca. For specific information regarding the Board of Management, please go to www.cra-arc.gc.ca/board.
Interested candidates should forward their curriculum vitae by May 11, 2009, to the Assistant Secretary to the Cabinet (Senior Personnel), Privy Council Office, 59 Sparks Street, 1st Floor, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0A3, 613-957-5006 (fax), GICA-NGEC@bnet.pco-bcp.gc.ca (email).
