LAT Decisions, Consent Orders and Minutes of Settlement
LAT Decisions and Consent Orders
The Licence Appeal Tribunal (LAT) is an independent adjudicative tribunal created under the Licence Appeal Tribunal Act, 1999 to hear appeals and render decisions respecting compensation claims and licensing activities regulated by various administrative agencies, including the Travel Industry Council of Ontario (TICO).
The Registrar, Travel Industry Act, 2002 (the Registrar) may issue a Notice of Proposal (NOP) to suspend, refuse or revoke registration. The Registrant who received a Notice of Proposal has fifteen (15) days from the date of the Notice of Proposal, to file a Notice of Appeal with LAT. If no appeal is received by LAT, the Registrar may carry out the proposal and revoke the registration of the Registrant.
When the Notice of Proposal to Revoke, Suspend, Refuse to Register or Refuse to Renew is appealed to LAT, a pre-hearing is scheduled. After the pre-hearing is held, if the matters are not settled, LAT holds a hearing into the issues outlined in the NOP. As a result of the hearing, LAT issues an official decision, in writing. This may include a Consent Order, with additional terms and conditions that the Registrant is required to comply with and is enforceable by LAT.
Below you will find LAT decisions with respect to TICO matters that have been issued since January 2016. Additionally, you will find Consent Orders as of April 2024.

Additional TICO Conditions of Registration/Minutes of Settlement
Minutes of Settlement issued by TICO are similar to Consent Orders and outline additional terms and conditions that a Registrant is required to comply with.
Instead of proceeding to a formal LAT hearing with respect to a NOP, both parties agreed to settle the matter with specific terms and conditions. The Minutes of Settlement are entered into between the parties and enforced by TICO’s Registrar.
