Office of Reconsideration Menu
The Office of Reconsideration reviews certain decisions made by the Minister of Transport, Infrastructure and Communities and serves marine workers who have applied for a Transportation Security Clearance and who have been refused, or who have had their Clearance cancelled under the Marine Transportation Security Regulations.
Persons may apply to the Office of Reconsideration to have these decisions reconsidered. It is important to note that the Office of Reconsideration does not make a determination; rather, it makes recommendations to the Minister.
