Bill S-232 — Loi concernant les accords de non-divulgation
Loi contre la rétribution du silence
Ce projet de loi changerait les règles sur les accords de confidentialité dans le gouvernement fédéral. Le gouvernement devrait publier chaque année le nombre d'accords de confidentialité qu'il signe et combien d'argent il dépense pour ceux-ci. L'information serait présentée de façon à ne pas révéler l'identité des personnes. De plus, un comité du Parlement examinerait la loi tous les deux ans.

Inscription gratuite — 30 sThis proposed law aims to limit the use of non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) in cases of harassment and discrimination involving public funds. It requires government entities and those receiving public money to report on NDAs and ensures complainants have access to legal advice before signing them, but it doesn't ban NDAs outright.
Things to Watch For
- The law only applies to federally funded entities, leaving a gap for other organizations.
- It relies on self-reporting, which may not be fully accurate.
- The definition of 'harassment and violence' is broad and could lead to disputes.
- The law does not address the power imbalance between parties signing NDAs.
- It's unclear how the government will ensure compliance and penalize violations.
