Regional conference of elected officers
A regional conference of representatives (Template:Lang-fr) is a type of governance in an administrative region of Quebec.
The CRÉs are primarily responsible for advising the Government of Quebec on issues in their respective regions and implementing projects assigned to them by the government. As such, they act as both interlocutors as well as agents. They have no taxation or management powers in their regions. They work with various political and socioeconomic partners, including the regional departments and agencies in Quebec, the regional county municipalities, the local development centers and development corporations working in the region.
Quebec is divided into 21 CRÉs, with complete territorial coverage: one for each of the administrative regions, except for Montérégie which has three, and Nord-du-Québec which also has three.
