What it set out to do

On 14 December 2022, the Minister of Employment, Workforce Development and Disability Inclusion introduced Bill C-37, An Act to amend the Department of Employment and Social Development Act and to make consequential amendments to other Acts (Employment Insurance Board of Appeal), and it was given first reading. Bill C-37 amends the Department of Employment and Social Development Act to, among other things, (a) establish the Employment Insurance Board of Appeal to hear appeals of decisions made under the Employment Insurance Act instead of the Employment Insurance Section of the General Division of the Social Security Tribunal; and (b) eliminate the requirement for leave to appeal decisions relating to the Employment Insurance Act to the Appeal Division of the Tribunal. It also makes consequential amendments to other Acts.
