The arm’s-length Utility Rates Review Council posted a member vacancy. It is looking for someone with business or regulatory experience, or equivalent experience and willingness to learn, who can prepare for and attend hearings. The notice lists honoraria of $400 a day or $200 for a half day. Source↗

The council advises the Government of Nunavut on utility rates, rate structures, long-term debt, capital spending and interim rates. Its work can inform decisions affecting the charges Nunavummiut pay for regulated utility services, although the council itself does not set a new rate through this recruitment. Source↗

Interested people must submit a résumé to the council’s executive director by Sept. 17, 2026. The notice does not state when an appointment will be made, the length of the available term, or how many seats are vacant. Source↗

This is a recruitment notice, not a utility-rate application, rate decision or Government of Nunavut appointment. The council’s notice does not carry a publication date. Atiilu News Desk verified it on Sept. 7, 2026. The Legislative Assembly’s current bills record confirms the 2026–27 operating budget was approved on June 11, so the May Main Estimates candidate is not the newest relevant item found from this source route.
