Dealing With Government Agencies


The federal, provincial and municipal governments often establish agencies to handle specific matters. There are rules about accountability and fairness that these agencies must follow. These agencies are accountable to the public as well as the government.

Fair Decision-Making

Government agencies owe a duty of fairness in making decisions. This duty applies to an agency when it does something which affects your rights or privileges.

Proper Use of Authority

Government agencies are authorized to make certain types of decisions. When doing so, they must use their discretion properly.

Challenging a Decision

If you are not satisfied with a governmental agency’s decision, you may be able to have the matter reviewed.

The Regina Public Library and Saskatoon Public Library are hosting free Law Fair events during Saskatchewan Access to Justice Week to connect people with free legal information, assistance, and support. Attend to acquire legal knowledge and to broaden awareness of legal rights and responsibilities!
