Review and Update of Canada's Code Development System (1996-2003)
Joint CCBFC/PTCBS Task Group on the Code Development and Review Process
A joint Task Group of the Canadian Commission on Building and Fire Codes (CCBFC) and the Provincial/Territorial Committee on Building Standards (PTCBS) was formed. Its role was two-fold: to recommend strategies aimed at ensuring appropriate levels of national/provincial/territorial participation in a uniform building, plumbing and fire code development and review process; and to establish a coordinated code public review process that accommodates the needs of the CCBFC and the provinces/territories.
