| DETERMINATION
|
The Minister’s decision is confirmed.
|
| REASONS FOR THE DETERMINATION
|
Refusal to issue a marine medical certificate – In view of the applicant’s testimony that he accepted that he needed to comply with Transport Canada’s recommendations before he could obtain his marine medical certificate (a detailed report from the applicant’s abuse professional regarding his alcohol consumption/substance use), there was no longer a dispute that needed to be addressed. The Minister’s decision to refuse to issue a marine medical certificate is confirmed.
