Public review of proposed changes to the 2020 National Model Codes

October 22, 2024

The Canadian Board for Harmonized Construction Codes (CBHCC) is inviting code users, interested parties, and the broader public to take part in the next public review of proposed changes to the 2020 editions of the National Model Codes.

The public review runs from October 21 to December 19, 2024. Those interested in participating in the review can access the proposed changes on the CBHCC's website and provide feedback.

The public review is an opportunity for all Canadians to participate in the code development process. The CBHCC encourages anyone who is interested to review and provide feedback on the changes being considered. 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.

Feedback on the proposed changes helps shape the National Model Codes, which are adopted, with or without modifications, by the provincial or territorial authorities having jurisdiction over the regulation of construction of buildings and houses.

For more information, please contact the CBHCC at CBHCCSecretary-SecretaireCCHCC@nrc-cnrc.gc.ca.
