    (2) The notice shall set out

    • (a) a reasonable period of not less than 90 days for the provision of the information or record;

    • (c) set aside the requirement if satisfied that it is unreasonable.

  • Marginal note:Requirement not unreasonable

    (5) For the purposes of subsection (4), a requirement to provide information or a record shall not be considered to be unreasonable solely because the information or record is under the control of or available to a person who is not resident in Canada, if that person is related, for the purposes of the Income Tax Act, to the person served with the notice of the requirement.

  • Marginal note:Time during consideration not to count

    (6) The period between the day on which an application for the review of a requirement is made and the day on which the review is decided shall not be counted in the computation of
