Notification and reporting under the HPTA and HPTR using the reporting module of the Biosecurity Portal .: HP45-14/2017E-PDF
"In Canada, all facilities where human pathogens or toxins are handled or stored are regulated under the Human Pathogens and Toxins Act (HPTA) and the Human Pathogens and Toxins Regulations (HPTR). The Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) has the ultimate authority to implement provisions of the HPTA and HPTR. The HPTR came into force on December 1, 2015. At the same time, the remaining sections of the HPTA also came into force and the Human Pathogens Importation Regulations were repealed. The Canadian Biosafety Standard (CBS) sets out additional operational practice requirements for notification and reporting, detailing the specific timelines, reporting forms, and reporting processes. This Guideline provides comprehensive guidance on how to complete and submit a notification report and, where exposure or laboratory acquired infections/intoxications (LAIs) is concerned, a subsequent follow-up report to the PHAC in accordance with requirements in the HPTA, HPTR and CBS"--Introduction, p. 1.
