The federal member on the Board of Directors of the Internal Trade Secretariat Corporation (ITSC) will seek approval from his provincial and territorial counterparts to direct the Executive Director of the ITSC to include an assessment of the ITSC's performance relative to targets in the next Operating Plan and Budget. This Board meets several times per year at the call of the chair, currently Prince Edward Island. The federal representative will start to engage his provincial and territorial colleagues at the next meeting of the Board which is expected to take place soon.
