The delegation matrices are provided for information purposes only and may change at any time, without notice.  Delegation of an authority does not necessarily preclude the Minister of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations from exercising that authority.  Although every effort has been made to keep the delegation matrices current, they may not reflect all of the delegations made to date by the Minister.
