Before creating a Collective space for an
enterprise or organization, we recommend verifying
whether one already exists, since an enterprise or organization may only
have one Collective space. To do so, go to your Professional space and use the
search tool available in the “Actions” section.
If the enterprise or organization already has a
Collective space, you may
join
it .
Otherwise, you can create one by following these steps:
- Go to the “Actions” section of your Professional
space;
- Click on “Je veux créer un Espace collectif” (I
want to create a Collective space);
- Enter the basic information about the Collective
space.
Identification of the Senior officer (SEO) and of an Administrator (ADM)
Only the
SEO or an authorized
representative of the enterprise or organization may
create a Collective space.
By selecting “Je suis autorisé à créer l’Espace
collectif” (I am authorized to create the Collective space), you declare that
you are authorized by the enterprise or organization to create its Collective
space in Carrefour Lobby Québec and you are automatically assigned the
role of Administrator (ADM) for the Collective space.
You must identify the
SEO and enter their email address so that an invitation
to validate the creation of the Collective space is sent to them.
Lobbyisme Québec will verify the identification
of the SEO during the Collective space’s validation process.
Name of the enterprise or organization
The name you must provide has to be the official name
of the enterprise or organization. If it is registered in the Québec Enterprise Register (REQ), the
official name is the one indicated in the “Identification de l’entreprise”
(Identification of the enterprise) section of its registration declaration.
If the official name of the enterprise or
organization indicated in the REQ is in a language other than French, you must provide the French version of the name that the
enterprise or organization uses and under which it identifies itself in the
course of its activities in Québec. Optionally, you may also add up to three
other names under which the enterprise or organization is identified in Québec.
Group, association or coalition
If your enterprise or organization is a group, an
association or a coalition, provide all
information that clearly identifies its members by clicking on “Ajouter une
description ou un membre” (Add a description or a member). If providing this description is not possible,
identify each member individually.
Example: If
a coalition includes all the merchants on a
street, you may state that its members are
the merchants on that street. However, if only some of the merchants on that
street form the coalition and there is no wording that specifically identifies
them, you must identify each member of the coalition individually.
List of associated websites or
corporate accounts
If your enterprise or organization has a website
or social media profiles (LinkedIn, Facebook, etc.), include
their URLs in this section. This information may be used by Lobbyisme
Québec to validate the creation of your Collective space.
Validation of the Collective space
Once the creation of the Collective space is
completed, it must be validated by Lobbyisme Québec and then confirmed by the
SEO of the enterprise or organization, if applicable. Lobbyisme Québec is
committed to processing requests within the
timeframes outlined in its
service commitment.
While awaiting validation, a member of the
Collective space may, if their
roles si allow:
- invite
or authorize other individuals to become members;
- modify
the information about the enterprise or organization;
- write mandate drafts.
Once the Collective space is validated by Lobbyisme Québec and
by the SEO, the functionalities
related to the disclosure of lobbying activities are activated.
