    • “Regime assessment”

    • Is there different wording that can be used to make this less confusing and repetitive?

Workflow

Is this the correct definition of a regime assessment? Is anything missing?

  • A regime assessment is a collection of laws and policies where the provisions of those laws and policies are evaluated against 32 measures (which are criteria or dimensions).
  • The results of evaluations for provisions will provide an understanding of how well a particular regime supports legal capacity.
  • Sources of laws and policies can come from multiple jurisdictions if it is relevant to the regime assessment.

Scenario - two different regime assessments but with some common sources of law

  • Person 1 is doing a regime assessment on legal capacity and human rights in Quebec
    • Canada Human Rights Act
    • Quebec Charter of Rights and Freedoms
    • Sources of law: 
  • Person 2 is doing a regime assessment on legal capacity and human rights in British Columbia
    • Canada Human Rights Act
    • BC Human Rights Code
    • Source of law:
  • The current behaviour in LCIL: if Person 1 assesses a provision in the Canadian Human Rights Act to “Does not Apply”, this is applied universally to all other regime assessments. Conversely, if Person 2 can change that assessment and it will affect Person 1’s regime assessment.
    • If yes, then this will affect the re-usability / sharing of provision assessments across regime assessments.
    • Is this the desired effect?
    • Should each regime assessment have independent provision assessments?

Provision Assessment

  • Is this assumption correct?
    • For a regime assessment, the provisions to measure are restricted to those belonging to the specified sources of law and policy.
  • When evaluating a provision, one can choose: Not applicable, Fully, Mostly, Partly, Not at all
    • What is the difference between “Not applicable” and “Not at all”?
