Bill 24 is focused on preventing patients from being charged “unfair fees” by designating it as professional misconduct or by revoking or suspending the licenses of independent health facilities.
Bill 19 amends the Auditor General Act to make it so ministries, Crown agencies, Crown corporations, and grant recipients can no longer refuse to provide information to the Auditor General on the grounds of that information being confidential, private, or otherwise privileged. (Such as solicitor-client privilege, litigation privilege, etc) If the Auditor General believes the information is necessary to perform their job, it has to be delivered.
