The public review will provide code users and stakeholders with a detailed look at the changes being considered and an opportunity to comment on whether the proposed changes should be approved, modified or withdrawn. Comments received can also inform improvements to the proposed changes. Following the public review, all comments will be considered by the relevant code development committees, and recommendations on the proposed changes will be made to the CBHCC. If approved, the changes will be included in the 2025 editions of the National Model Codes, which are published by the NRC.
Your feedback on the proposed changes will help shape the National Model Codes, which are adopted, with or without modifications, by the provincial or territorial authority having jurisdiction over local building, fire, plumbing and energy regulations.
Public reviews for future sets of proposed changes to the 2020 editions of the Codes are also planned to take place later this year and in 2024.
