[27-1-o] FOOD AND DRUGS ACT Food and Drug Regulations — Amendment Interim Marketing Authorization Formulated liquid diets are foods for special dietary use that are sold or represented as nutritionally complete diets and that have been specially processed or formulated to meet the particular requirements of a person in whom a physical or physiological condition exists as a result of a disease. The Food and Drug Regulations set out nutritional requirements for formulated liquid diets. These requirements include minimum levels for 18 vitamins and mineral nutrients and, in the case of vitamins A and D, maximum levels. Health Canada has received a submission to exempt formulated liquid diets formulated specifically for patients with renal failure from the application of the minimum requirements of vitamins A and D and the mineral nutrients phosphorus and magnesium. The dietary management of vitamins A and D and the mineral nutrients phosphorus and magnesium must be individualized for patients with renal failure based on the specific condition of the patient. Optimal intake levels of these vitamins and mineral nutrients will vary depending on the age and body weight of the patient and the severity of the renal failure. Health Canada has completed a safety assessment of the proposal to exempt formulated liquid diets for patients with renal failure from the application of the current minimum requirements for the nutrients named above. Evaluation of the available data supports the safety of the exemption of formulated liquid diets for patients with renal failure from the minimum levels for vitamins A and D and for the mineral nutrients phosphorus and magnesium. Patients with renal failure are under strict medical supervision which would ensure the safe use of such products. The Food and Drug Regulations prohibit the advertising of formulated liquid diets to the general public. Formulated liquid diets with lower levels of vitamins A and D and of the mineral nutrients phosphorus and magnesium than the currently permitted levels under the Regulations have been sold under Temporary Marketing Authorization Letters for a number of years with no reported adverse effects. Health Canada therefore intends to recommend that section B.24.102 of the Food and Drug Regulations be amended to exempt liquid diets formulated specifically for patients with renal failure from the application of the minimum requirements of vitamins A and D and of the mineral nutrients phosphorus and magnesium to meet the specific dietary needs of these patients. As a means to improve the responsiveness of the regulatory system, an Interim Marketing Authorization (IMA) is being issued to permit the immediate sale of liquid diets formulated specifically for patients with renal failure and exempted from the application of the minimum requirements of vitamins and mineral nutrients, as indicated above, while the regulatory process is undertaken to amend the Regulations formally.

June 20, 2005 AÏSSA AOMARI For the Minister of Industry [27-1-o] RADIOCOMMUNICATION ACT Notice No. DGTP-005-05 — Proposed Spectrum Utilization Policy, Technical and Licensing Requirements for Broadband Public Safety in the Band 4 940-4 990 MHz Intent The intent of this notice is to initiate public consultation through the release of the above-mentioned spectrum document to accommodate broadband public safety services in the frequency band 4 940-4 990 MHz. Discussion The provision of public safety and national security services relies heavily on advanced communications. The need for new wireless technologies and radio applications has put significant pressure to find priority spectrum for these requirements. With the modernization of telecommunications and broadcasting infrastructures, the Department has been able to allocate new spectrum to meet critical public safety and security needs. For example the digitization of over-the-air TV broadcasting has opened a modest amount of priority spectrum for public safety in the range 746-806 MHz. The Department has since released Spectrum Utilization Policy 3-30 GHz (October 2004) which, in part, designated the band 4 940-4 990 MHz for broadband public safety communications. In response to this new broadband public safety designation, the Department received responses from several Canadian public safety agencies. These agencies stressed how critical the band 4 940-4 990 MHz is to support advanced broadband technologies which enable high-speed wireless transfers of large files, images and video, as well as intranet access, at specified locations. These agencies further indicated the importance of dedicated spectrum for broadband applications. The Department has worked over the past years towards improving the critical communication and infrastructure of public safety agencies as well as ensuring access to spectrum resources. This consultation initiative to open broadband spectrum for public safety services represents an example of the Department's commitment to address public safety and security spectrum needs. Further, this consultation proposes to establish the spectrum policy, technical and licensing provisions to allow public safety agencies early implementation of critical broadband systems in the band 4 940-4 990 MHz. Interested parties are invited to submit comments on the proposal for the implementation of broadband public safety services in the band 4 940-4 990 MHz. Submitting comments Respondents are requested to provide their comments no later than October 7, 2005, in electronic format (WordPerfect, Microsoft Word, Adobe PDF or ASCII TXT), along with a note specifying the software, version number and operating system used, to the following email address: wireless@ic.gc.ca. Written submissions should be addressed to the Director, Spectrum and Radio Policy, Telecommunications Policy Branch, Industry Canada, 300 Slater Street, Room 1604A, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0C8. All submissions should cite the Canada Gazette, Part I, the publication date, the title, and the notice reference number (DGTP-005-05).

June 23, 2005 LARRY SHAW [27-1-o] RADIOCOMMUNICATION ACT Notice No. SMBR-001-05 — New Broadcasting Procedures and Rules Part 8 (BPR-8) for broadcasting receiving undertakings (cable television) in replacement of Broadcasting Procedure 23 The Department announces the issue of a new Broadcasting Procedures and Rules Part 8, replacing Broadcasting Procedure 23 (BP-23) and amendments, on the requirements for leakage control of those frequencies that can potentially interfere with aircraft aeronautical communication systems. Broadcasting receiving undertakings can use frequencies that are currently assigned to aircraft operational communications. In order to ensure interference-free operations of the airborne receivers, cable operators must have in place a program of maintenance, signal leakage control and response procedures. These control mechanisms were put in place in 1995 and have not been modified to reflect progress in monitoring and measurement technologies. The proposed amendments aim at improving the efficiency of the leakage control verification procedures while ensuring the integrity of the aeronautical operational communications; they have been extensively coordinated with Transport Canada and NAV CANADA. Amendments Presently, an applicant wishing to use channels A-1, A-2, EE and FF must demonstrate through a detailed report that adequate control of the electromagnetic leakage is in place to protect aeronautical communication systems. The applicant must also submit a detailed report on leakage control (including results of measurements), maintenance and response to interference problems every seven years as a condition of certificate renewal. The new BPR-8 maintain the requirements and format of the initial report described in BP-23 and introduce a new requirement for a supplementary report to be forwarded to the Department every two years thereafter. This supplementary report must include any changes made to the cable system, the results of leakage measurements and the corrective actions taken to ensure continuing compliance with the leakage limits. The format of the supplementary report is given in Appendix B of the new BPR. The Department may carry out its own leakage patrol and provide corrective measures if deemed necessary.
