Section 14 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Act and Sections 16 to 19 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulations Order NSUARB-GAS-W-12-15 In the Matter of the Petroleum Products Pricing Act - and - In the Matter of Prescribing Prices for Petroleum Products pursuant to

Section 14 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Act and Sections 16 to 19 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulations Before: Roberta J. Clarke, Q.C., Member Order

Whereas the purpose of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulations is to ensure just and reasonable prices for specified petroleum products taking into consideration the objectives of preserving the availability of such products in rural areas, stabilizing prices of such products and minimizing the variances in prices of such products across the Province; And

whereas the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board (“Board”) considered the manner in which it would proceed to set petroleum prices in its decision, 2006 NSUARB 108, issued on October 16, 2006; And

whereas the Board revised the retail margin and transportation allowance effective January 6, 2012, in its Decision 2011 NSUARB 181, issued on November 23, 2011; And

whereas the average of the average of the daily high and low reported product prices (in Canadian cents) for the week ended April 11, 2012, are: Grade 1 Regular gasoline 86.2¢ per litre Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil 84.8¢ per litre

Now therefore the Board prescribes the benchmark prices for petroleum products to be:

N.S. Reg. 83/2012 Royal Gazette

Part II - Regulations Vol. 36, No. 9 © NS Registry of Regulations. Web version. 283 Gasoline: Grade 1 86.2¢ per litre Grade 2 89.2¢ per litre Grade 3 92.2¢ per litre Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil 84.8¢ per litre And

now therefore the Board prescribes the prices for petroleum products as set forth in

Change of status of police officer as subject or witness 8( 1 ) If, at any time after advising that a police officer is considered to be a subject police officer, the person in charge of the investigation decides that the police officer’s status is changed to that of a witness police officer, the person in charge of the investigation must advise the chief officer and the police officer in writing of the change of status.

(2) If, after conducting an interview with or obtaining police officer’s notes from a police officer who was considered to be a witness police officer when the interview was directed or the police officer’s notes requested, the person in charge of the investigation decides that the officer is now considered to be a subject police officer, the person in charge of the investigation must do all of the following: (

Section 14 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Act and Sections 16 to 19 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulations Before: Murray E. Doehler, CA, P. Eng., Member Order

Whereas the purpose of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulations is to ensure just and reasonable prices for specified petroleum products taking into consideration the objectives of preserving the availability of such products in rural areas, stabilizing prices of such products and minimizing the variances in prices of such products across the Province; And

whereas the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board (“Board”) considered the manner in which it would proceed to set petroleum prices in its decision, 2006 NSUARB 108, issued on October 16, 2006; And

whereas the Board revised the retail margin and transportation allowance effective January 6, 2012, in its Decision 2011 NSUARB 181, issued on November 23, 2011; And

whereas the average of the average of the daily high and low reported product prices (in Canadian cents) for the week ended April 18, 2012, are: Grade 1 Regular gasoline 85.2¢ per litre Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil 84.7¢ per litre

Now therefore the Board prescribes the benchmark prices for petroleum products to be: Gasoline: Grade 1 85.2¢ per litre Grade 2 88.2¢ per litre Grade 3 91.2¢ per litre Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil 84.7¢ per litre And
