†A remission is a partial or full return of a fee paid. Under the Service Fees Act, departments are required to develop policies that determine when fees will be remitted to fee payers should service standards not be met. At the time of this report being tabled, the Office of the Secretary to the Governor General is not subject to the requirements pursuant to section 7 of the Service Fees Act and it related instrument, therefore it does not have a remission policy.
No other remissions related to fees were issued by the Office of the Secretary to the Governor General since it did not have or seek other authorities to remit.
