SaskEnergy is a provincial Crown Corporation governed by
The SaskEnergy Act. Oversight and direction of the
business is carried out by the Board of Directors, while
the daily operation of business is conducted by
Management.The Crown Investments Corporation also has
authority to set broad direction for Crown Corporations
through its legislation and policies.
In the case of a Crown Corporation, the
Corporation's Board of Directors provides general or
overarching guidance and direction, while the
Corporation's CEO has full management responsibility for
all day-to-day operations. In Saskatchewan, there is an
additional intermediary between a Crown Corporation such
as SaskEnergy and the Legislative Assembly, known as the
Crown Investments Corporation of Saskatchewan (CIC).
CIC is the holding company for the designated commercial
Crown Corporations and other CIC Crown Corporations, and
exercises supervisory powers over these Crown
Corporations. CIC has its own Minister, Board of
Directors and CEO.
The policies developed by CIC are now centrally located through the
CIC Policy Manual on a
restricted access web site.
