Notices of Administrative Monetary Penalties are administered in accordance with Canadian Aviation Regulations section 103.08, which is enabled by sections 7.7 to 8.2 of the Aeronautics Act.
Non-corporate enforcement action summaries describe the circumstances related to contraventions committed by individuals. They will be published in accordance with the following criteria:
- when an alleged offender is served with a Notice of Administrative Monetary Penalty, or
- when an alleged offender is served with a Notice of Suspension of a Canadian aviation document
This information will be updated monthly and will remain posted for a period of twenty-four months before being archived.
