ORDER

In its determination of June 15, 2005, the Canadian International Trade Tribunal, pursuant to section 30.16 of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal Act, awarded Med-Emerg International Inc. its reasonable costs incurred in filing the complaint. The Canadian International Trade Tribunal's preliminary indication of the level of complexity for this complaint case was Level 3, and its preliminary indication of the amount of the cost award was $4,100.

After considering the submission of Med-Emerg International Inc. requesting that the Canadian International Trade Tribunal award costs in excess of $4,100 and the Department of Public Works and Government Services' reply that the facts of the case did not warrant deviating from the all-inclusive flat rate provided by the Guideline for Fixing Costs in Procurement Complaint Proceedings, the Canadian International Trade Tribunal confirms its preliminary indication of the level of complexity, allows Med-Emerg International Inc. costs in the amount of $4,100 for preparing and proceeding with the complaint and directs the Department of Public Works and Government Services to take appropriate action to ensure payment.
