An Act to amend the Customs Act (reporting requirements) = Loi modifiant la Loi sur les douanes (obligation de se présenter) / the Honourable Senator Runciman.: YB421-227/1-PDF

This enactment amends the Customs Act to exempt certain persons who re-enter Canadian waters aboard a marine pleasure craft from the requirement to present themselves to a customs officer if they re-enter Canadian waters directly from the waters of another country and, while in the waters of that other country, they did not disembark, anchor, moor or make contact with a conveyance and they did not import goods from that other country. It also exempts certain persons entering Canada aboard a marine pleasure craft from that requirement if they enter Canadian waters directly from the waters of another country and they do not, while in Canadian waters and before returning to that other country, disembark, anchor, moor or make contact with a conveyance and export goods. It also adds a regulation-making authority for defining the term “make contact with a conveyance”.
