(b) by striking out everything after "eligible for enforcement." and substituting "The designated officer may request information from the creditor when requested to do so by the debtor, but the designated officer may refuse if the frequency of requests for information by the debtor is unreasonable.".
The following is added after subsection 61.1.1(8):
61.1.1(8.1) Despite subsection 55(2.2) (confidential information), both the creditor and the debtor are entitled to a copy of any information the other has provided to the designated officer for the purpose of this section, but the designated officer may remove any contact, identifying or sensitive information from a copy that is provided.
This Act comes into force on the day it receives royal assent.
