Forum Update: Supporting Community-Led Discussion
The forum was created as a space for shared learning and peer support, and as the community grows, we want to lean more fully into that purpose.
Going forward, PAAB will be taking a more listening-first role in forum discussions. Rather than responding immediately to every question, we’ll be encouraging members to engage with one another, share experiences, and help build collective understanding. PAAB will continue to monitor conversations and will step in to:
- Correct any misunderstandings
- Provide guidance when questions remain unanswered after a few days
- Support discussions where official clarification is needed
Our goal is to foster a collaborative, trusted community where knowledge is shared and strengthened by everyone’s contributions.
Thank you for being part of the conversation.
PAAB exemption criteria

Hey @akar
Correspondences intended to promote the company’s services (e.g. sampling services), would be classified as Corporate messages. When such APS mention or allude to a healthcare product, they require review per section 7.4 of the Code. The subject line, the email body, any attachments, and any hyperlinks would be considered in our review. If you are unsure whether review is required for a specific instance, you could submit an opinion enquiring whether the APS is exempt. You can instruct us within that opinion submission to EITHER inform you of the required revisions to make it exempt, or to inform you of the required changes to make it acceptable. See the document Exemption Requests Policy and Procedure
