Introduction

Today's Statutory Publications continues a tradition which began in 1870, by providing government and the public with information on the proceedings and laws of the government of the day. As the population of Manitoba has grown, so has the government and the laws enacted by the elected officials. Correspondingly, Statutory Publications has enlarged its operations to keep pace with this growing body of material and the increased demand for information.

Our clients include government, lawyers, corporations, universities, school divisions, health care institutions, unions and the general public.

What does Statutory Publications do?

Statutory Publications makes information available through the publication and distribution of statutes, regulations and other Legislative material, the Manitoba Gazette, the CCSM (Continuing Consolidation of the Statutes of Manitoba), Special Sets and Re-enacted Regulations.

We provide support to provincial government departments in the production and delivery of Statutes and Regulations and act as a central distribution centre for Legislative and select government publications. Our office is located in the Lower Level of the Archives Building, 200 Vaughan Street.

Statutory Publications works in conjunction with the offices of the Legislative Assembly, Legislative Counsel, and the Legislative Library to produce and distribute the Manitoba Gazette and the Statutes of Manitoba.

We also provide a subscription service to our clients for the Manitoba Gazette, Bills, Votes and Proceedings, CCSM, and Special Sets - a compilation of certain Acts and Regulations.
