Storm Closures and IRAC hearings:

If the Provincial Government/Provincial Civil Service offices in Charlottetown are closed or delayed due to a storm, this will include the offices of IRAC.

• If offices are closed for the day and there is a hearing scheduled for that date, the hearing will be held on an alternate date and the parties will be contacted to re-schedule.

• If offices are delayed in opening for all or part of the morning and a hearing is scheduled that morning, the hearing will automatically be delayed until 1:30 pm that day.

• If offices are delayed in opening for all or part of the morning and a hearing is scheduled for the afternoon, the afternoon scheduled hearing will proceed at the set time.

• In the event that a decision is made to close Provincial Government/Provincial Civil Service offices in Charlottetown after the work day has commenced and a scheduled hearing has not commenced, the hearing will be re-scheduled and parties will be contacted to arrange an alternate date for the hearing.

Parties to a hearing are encouraged to provide the office with the most appropriate contact information to help avoid any confusion over the operation of a hearing during a storm closure.
Announcements for Provincial Government office closures may be heard on most PEI radio stations.
Please note, a separate announcement for IRAC will not be made.
