This requirement is to establish a Contract to acquire independent expertise in program evaluation and agriculture sector analysis to conduct an independent review of the operation of the Farm Debt Mediation Act (FDMA) and the FDMS, fulfilling the statutory review requirement under Section 28 of the FDMA and to support the drafting of the Minister’s Report to Parliament.

The required outputs include: • A comprehensive FDMS Review Report. • A Draft Report to Parliament suitable for Ministerial tabling. A Final Report to Parliament, summarizing the findings and conclusions from the study, revised based on AAFC feedback.
