The Saskatchewan Revenue Agency Act (SRA), Bill 122, has passed third reading in the province and is now awaiting royal assent before being written into law.

The provincial government says the legislation allows the province to create its own tax revenue agency, to have “greater autonomy” over how taxes are collected within the province and that the bill is necessary to keep the federal government from encroaching on Saskatchewan’s jurisdiction.
