Participant funding for the Regulatory Oversight Report on the Use of Nuclear Substances in Canada: 2023
This participant funding opportunity is open from March 11 to April 19, 2024.
Participant funding notice
The Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) is offering participant funding to assist Indigenous Nations and communities, members of the public and interested parties in reviewing CNSC staff’s Regulatory Oversight Report on the Use of Nuclear Substances in Canada: 2023 and in submitting comments in writing to the Commission. In addition, in the spirit of reconciliation and in recognition of the Indigenous oral tradition of sharing knowledge, Indigenous intervenors can make oral presentations if interested. The nuclear substances covered by the regulatory oversight report (ROR) are located in the traditional and treaty territories of many Indigenous Nations and communities.
On November 6 or 7, 2024, the CNSC will hold a public meeting at which CNSC staff will present the ROR to the Commission. The report provides an overview of CNSC staff’s assessment of the safety performance of licensees in the medical, industrial, academic and research, and commercial sectors that used nuclear substances in Canada in 2023.
Up to $7,500 in participant funding will be disbursed among all eligible applicants for the provision of new, distinctive and valuable information through informed and topic-specific interventions to the Commission. Participant funding applications must clearly demonstrate how the proposed intervention to the Commission will stay within the scope of the Commission meeting and provide information on topics specifically related to the safety performance of nuclear substances licensees in 2023.
To apply, please submit a participant funding application form. Certain terms and conditions apply. You can submit the form by:
