Compendium of Guidelines, Policies and Procedures

Note to the Reader

The PMPRB first published the Compendium of Guidelines, Policies and Procedures in 1994 as a consolidation of its Guidelines, policies and procedures which had previously been published in various issues of its now defunct publication, the Bulletin.

From time to time since then, we have published clarifications of the Guidelines in the NEWSletter and consulted on amendments through our Notice and Comment process. Recently, we have updated the Compendium to incorporate amendments as well as other revisions of a technical nature.

This updated version of the Compendium was first published in October 2003.
