NIN 2000/08 - Revised Indices of Commission Rules and Other Policy Documents [NIN - Rescinded]

Published Date: 2000-02-11
Effective Date: 2000-01-31
Effective January 31, 2000, the Commission rescinded the indices dated effective June 30, 1999 (NIN#99/26) of:
  • Commission Rules and Other Policy Documents - Uniform Numbering System1

1 This index was previously referred to as the “Index of Documents Under National Numbering System”.

  • Notices and Interpretation Notes (“NINs”)
  • Blanket Orders and Rulings (“BORs”)
  • Local Policy Statements (“LPSs”).
The Commission is substituting the indices attached to this Notice. The indices list only the instruments that are in effect and that have been lapsed, rescinded or revoked since June 30, 1999. The Commission is not publishing a separate index of forms at this time.

Uniform Numbering System for Commission Rules and Other Policy Documents

The Commission is in the process of changing how Commission documents are numbered in order to be consistent with the numbering system used for national documents since 1996. Most new documents (except for notices and news releases) are numbered using a 5 digit number and are found in the attached index of “Commission Rules and Other Policy Documents - Uniform Numbering System”. That index includes all national rules, national policies, forms relating to national instruments and policies, CSA notices and related documents published for comment or adopted since
January 1, 1996 and all local rules, local policies, forms relating to local rules and policies, interpretation notes and blanket orders published for comment or adopted since July 1, 1999.

The material in the index of “Commission Rules and Other Policy Documents - Uniform Numbering System” is organized first by subject matter and then by type of document. The first number indicates the subject matter of the document. The documents are divided into 9 main subject areas, indicated by the first number. Most of these major subject areas are further divided into subcategories, indicated by the second number. These subject areas and subcategories are set out in the Appendix attached to this Notice.

In addition, the numbering system distinguishes between types of documents, indicated by the third number. The documents are divided into 8 main types:
  • 1 Denotes a National Instrument and any related Companion Policy or Form
  • 2 Denotes a National Policy
  • 3 Denotes a CSA Notice
  • 4 Denotes a CSA Request for Comment
  • 5 Denotes a local rule, regulation or blanket ruling and any related Companion Policy or Form
  • 6 Denotes a local policy
  • 7 Denotes a local Notice that provides interpretation (not a notice introducing another document)
  • 8 Denotes an implementing rule.
The last two numbers are assigned consecutively to documents within that subject matter and of the type indicated.

LPSs and BORs adopted prior to July 1, 1999, and revocation orders adopted both before and after that date, can be found in the other indices attached to this notice.

NINs, BORs and LPSs

The lapsing of a particular Notice does not imply that any material introduced or referred to in the Notice is no longer in effect. Unlike previous indices, LPSs that have been revoked during previous periods, and LPS numbers that are not used, are not included in the current LPS index.

Effective January 1, 1996, the Commodity Contract Act, R.S.B.C. 1979, c. 56 (“CCA”), was repealed. Pursuant to section 36 of the Interpretation Act, BORs under the CCA continue to have effect to the extent that the provisions in the CCA were continued under the Securities Act. However, as staff is recommending that the CCA BORs be revoked or, in the case of CCA BOR#89/4, be replaced, the CCA BORs are not included in the indices that accompany this notice.

NINs, BORs and LPSs will be amended in due course to correct section references that have changed since those documents were drafted. Until the updated NINs, BORs and LPSs are published, they should be read to refer, with the necessary changes, to the appropriate sections of the Securities Act, Securities Regulation, and Securities Rules.

A number of LPSs have been revised, replaced or rescinded in the past several years (e.g., LPS 3-17 was rescinded and LPS 3-44 was replaced by LP 21-601 (BC)). As a result, other LPSs may contain outdated references to rescinded LPSs. In addition to updating the LPSs to reflect changes to the legislation, the LPSs will also be updated in due course to reflect the changes consequential to the implementation of all new and replacement LPSs. Until the updated LPSs are published, LPSs should be read to refer, with the necessary changes, to the new and replacement LPSs.

DATED at Vancouver, British Columbia, on February 10, 2000.
