	RECOMMENDATION
	Her Excellency the Governor General recommends to the House of Commons the appropriation of public revenue under the circumstances, in the manner and for the purposes set out in a measure entitled ``An Act to establish the Transportation Appeal Tribunal of Canada and to make consequential amendments to other Acts''.
	SUMMARY
	This enactment establishes the Transportation Appeal Tribunal of Canada, which replaces the Civil Aviation Tribunal established under Part IV of the Aeronautics Act, and extends the new Tribunal's jurisdiction to the marine and railway sectors.
	The enactment provides for the appointment of members to the Tribunal, and sets out the general powers and authorities of the Tribunal to conduct its affairs. It also provides for an independent process of review by the Tribunal of administrative enforcement actions - including the suspension and cancellation of licences, certificates and other documents of entitlement, and the imposition of monetary penalties - taken under various federal transportation Acts. The Tribunal will also hear appeals from determinations made on review.
	The enactment amends the Aeronautics Act, the Canada Shipping Act, the Canada Transportation Act, the Marine Transportation Security Act and the Railway Safety Act to establish the jurisdiction and decision-making authorities of the Tribunal under those Acts.
