On November 23, 2007, the British Columbia Securities Commission adopted BC Instrument 52-511 Relief for venture issuers from certain certification requirements (the BCI). The BCI exempts venture issuers that file annual and interim certificates in the forms set out in the BCI from filing the annual and interim certificates prescribed by Multilateral Instrument 52-109 Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings. The exemptions apply for financial years and interim periods ending on or after December 31, 2007.
The BCI applies to venture issuers that are reporting issuers in British Columbia. A venture issuer that is a reporting issuer in any other jurisdiction should consult that jurisdiction’s website to determine whether a similar exemption or other form of accommodation is available in that jurisdiction.
Venture issuers filing certificates in the forms set out in the BCI should use the SEDAR filing categories for Form 52-109F1 (annual certificate) and Form 52-109F2 (interim certificate).
Concurrently with this notice, we are publishing the BCI and Canadian Securities Administrators Notice 52-319 Status of Proposed Repeal and Replacement of Multilateral Instrument 52-109 Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings.
