Subject Matter of the Lobbying Activities

Details Regarding the Identified Subject Matter

Will the consultant lobbyist be arranging meetings between a public office holder and the client for the purpose of attempting to influence any of the matters listed:

Yes

Specific Topics of Lobbying Communications	Intended Outcomes	Associated Subject Matters
Advocacy to ensure Part 5 - Production Machinery and Equipment of the Provincial Sales Tax Exemption and Refund Regulation (S. 94 (1) a and b) includes abandonment and well reclamation work as eligible for exemption development activities of petroleum and natural gas.	Development, establishment, amendment or termination of any program, policy, directive or guideline of the government of British Columbia or a Provincial entity	Economic Development and Trade, Energy, Taxation and Finance
CAOEC is requesting the B.C. Government apply the Employer Health Tax (EHT) on a prorated basis for nonresident and resident workers who work outside of the province. This system of assessing and applying the EHT would substantially reduce the inherent unfairness in the current application of the EHT, prevent incentives for employers to favour the use of resident or non-resident workers, and maintain adequate revenues to the B.C. government in support of the objectives of the EHT. A prorated application of the EHT can be achieved through legislative amendment of the EHTA or via the regulatory power described in Section 110(1) of the Act.	Development of any legislative proposal by the government of British Columbia, a Provincial entity or a member of the Legislative Assembly	Energy, Finances and Budgets
CAOEC wishes to discuss with officials the initiative to invest in a ‘Made-in-BC’ carbon capture and storage industry and how CAODC member companies and their workers can participate to help drive economic growth and prosperity in the Western Sedimentary Basin.	Development, establishment, amendment or termination of any program, policy, directive or guideline of the government of British Columbia or a Provincial entity	Energy
Oil and Gas Royalty Review	Development of any legislative proposal by the government of British Columbia, a Provincial entity or a member of the Legislative Assembly Introduction, amendment, passage or defeat of any Bill or resolution in or before the Legislative Assembly Development or enactment of any regulation, including the enactment of a regulation for the purposes of amending or repealing a regulation	Taxation and Finance
