Permanent consultation process for classifications

Statistics Canada is now inviting data producers and data users, representatives of business associations, government bodies at the federal, provincial, and local levels, academics and researchers and all other interested parties to submit proposals for the revision of our major statistical classifications on a permanent basis. There will be no rigid consultation period anymore. Only a cut-off date for considering proposed changes to be included in a new version of the classification is being instituted moving forward. This permanent consultation principle which started with NAICS Canada and NAPCS Canada and now includes CIP Canada and NOC, will be applied gradually to other statistical classifications, as needed.
