New Drafts - Plain Language Regulations - Explosives Regulations Project

We began a pilot project to make the sections of the Explosives Regulations covering family fireworks more reader-friendly some time ago. We drafted plain language Consumer Fireworks Regulations and tested them with retailers and consumers to see if the requirements were clear and easy to understand.

The Explosives Regulations project builds on that pilot project. We are now looking at the regulations as a whole and trying to write modernized regulations that reflect existing regulations, policies, practices, and changes in technology. more http://www.nrcan-rncan.gc.ca/mms/explosif/over/noticeboard_e.htm
