Office of the Registrar of Lobbyists

Strategic Outcome

Transparency and accountability in the lobbying of public office holders contribute to confidence in the integrity of government decision-making.

Program Activity Descriptions

Registration of Lobbyists
Lobbying the federal government is a legitimate activity but it must be done transparently. The Lobbyists Registration Act requires that individuals who are paid to lobby public office holders must disclose certain details of their lobbying activities. The Registrar approves lobbyists' registrations and makes them available for searching in an electronic registry that is accessible on the Internet.

Education and Research
The Office develops and implements educational and research programs to foster awareness of the requirements of the Lobbyists Registration Act and the Lobbyists' Code of Conduct. The primary audiences for programs are lobbyists, their clients and public office holders.

Review and Investigations under the Lobbyists Registration Act and the Lobbyists' Code of Conduct
The Office validates information provided by registered lobbyists to ensure accuracy. Allegations of non-registration or misconduct by lobbyists are reviewed and formal investigations are carried out when required.
