The OEB has issued its Jurisdictional Review of Intervenor Processes and Cost Awards. The OEB is moving forward by developing a Framework for the Review of Intervenor Processes and Cost Awards. This jurisdictional review is the first step. It has been done to identify best practices with respect to how other regulators determine who should be granted intervenor status and cost awards, and if costs are awarded, how the amount is determined. The jurisdictional review is intended to assist in identifying different approaches to intervenor processes for consideration in improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the process.
