The provisions respecting the processing of complaints,
communication of information and disclosure of wrongdoing to the
Autorité des marchés publics (AMP) came into force on
May 25, 2019. An interested person or partnership wishing to file a
complaint with the AMP or provide information to the AMP about a
public contract or the tendering process for a public contract can
now do so by following the procedure set out in the Act
respecting the Autorité des marchés
publics1 (AAMP).
The AMP's Mission
Following the Charbonneau Commission's first recommendation,
the AMP was created on January 25, 2019, and most of the functions
given to the Autorité des marchés financiers in the
Act Respecting Contracting by Public Bodies2
were transferred to the AMP at that time.
