What information do Ministers consider in making their decision about issuing an environmental assessment certificate?
• The EAO provides Ministers with an assessment report that presents the findings of the project assessment, and usually accompanies the report with its recommendations. In addition, Ministers may consider any other matters that, in their view, are relevant to the public interest in making their decision, such as broader government objectives for the environment or the economy or social and community well-being.
