Torngat Wildlife and Plants
Co-Management Board
The Torngat Wildlife and Plants Co-Management Board is a public body made up of seven members, including the chairperson. Three members will be appointed by the Nunatsiavut Government, two members will be appointed by the provincial minister, and one member will be appointed by the federal minister. The chairperson will be nominated by the other members and be appointed by the provincial minister.
The Torngat Wildlife and Plants Co-Management Board has the power to establish, when necessary, total allowable harvests for all species of wildlife other than migratory birds and caribou, and for plants. This power is subject to ministerial disallowance. The board will also recommend the total allowable harvests for caribou and migratory birds to the relevant minister.
The board will recommend conservation and management measures for wildlife, plants and habitat, and provide advice and recommendations to the federal, provincial, and Nunatsiavut governments on all other matters related to the management of wildlife and plants in the Labrador Inuit Settlement Area.
