Amendments to Policy Statement to Regulation 61-101 Respecting Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions

The Canadian securities regulators issued amendments to Policy Statement 61-101 to update cross-references within the regulatory framework. Section 4.1 of the policy was modified to replace the citation of Regulation 62-104 with its full title, which now includes the Early Warning System. This change ensures that the policy accurately reflects the current scope of Regulation 62-104 regarding take-over bids, issuer bids, and beneficial ownership reporting.
