===Signing the Parenting Coordination Agreement===
#the scope of the issues the parenting coordinator may address, and any specific issues the parenting coordinator must address;
#the length of the parenting coordinator's retainer; and,
#the circumstances in which the parenting coordinator can withdraw or be terminated from a case.
Many parenting coordinators use the signing of their parenting coordination agreements as an opportunity to have the parties execute releases and authorizations allowing the parenting coordinator to speak to people like the children's doctors, counsellors and teachers. Under s. 16 of the ''Family Law Act'',
<blockquote><tt>A party must, for the purposes of facilitating parenting coordination, provide the parenting coordinator with</tt></blockquote>
<blockquote><blockquote><tt>(a) information requested by the parenting coordinator, and</tt></blockquote></blockquote>
<blockquote><blockquote><tt>(b) authorization to request and receive information, respecting a child or a party, from a person who is not a party.</tt></blockquote></blockquote>
===The Retainer and Deposit===
The parenting coordinator's determination will be given to the parties in writing, even if the parenting coordinator first made his or her determination orally. This is a written statement of the determination and the reasons for that determination.
===Enforcing a Determination===
Parenting coordinators' determinations may be enforced by filing them in court, either under Rule 12 of the Provincial Court Family Rules or Rule 2-1.1 of the Supreme Court Family Rules.
