LMG Advisory Committee Roadmap 2024-2027

Introduction

The purpose of the Land Matters Advisory Committee (LMAC) Roadmap is to identify, at a high level, work priorities, deliverables and activities that will advance the goals of the LMAC in 2024 through 2027.

The Roadmap is a project management tool and it’s also a living document, which is reviewed every three years. The Roadmap is complimentary to the LMAC’s detailed Action Plan and Terms of Reference.

Guiding Principles

The work of the LMAC is founded on and guided by management system principles in line with the CER’s approach to implementing its regulatory mandate. The four basic elements of a management system approach are:

  • plan - clearly setting out the work that must be done and how it will be done;
  • do - implementing the plan in a controlled, purposeful manner;
  • check - reviewing and verifying that the plan is being accomplished and that the work is ontrack; and
  • adjust/act - undertaking corrective actions to address any deficiencies and incorporate new information and issues that further enhance plan delivery.

This cycle is ongoing and is intended to drive continual improvement of the LMAC’s work, which supports the CER in improving its regulatory framework and approaches for addressing land matters.

Please refer to the LMAC Terms of Reference for elaboration on these guiding principles.
