In August 2003 the Board of Directors approved the retirement of ten policies from the Prevention Division's Policy and Procedure Manual. The effective date for the retirement of the policies is September 1, 2003. On that date, the policies set out in Appendix "A" to the resolution ceased to be policy. The retirement of these policies is part of a larger project that will eventually result in all prevention policies being consolidated into the Prevention Manual and/or retired, as appropriate.
