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.
Exemption
-
If we create an APS that only has the brand logo, indication statements, low Fair Balance and no visual (just brand colours) would it be exempt from PAAB review? Could any portions of the indication statement be bolded?
@tmcm
Thank you for your question. The proposed APS does not meet exemption criteria as per Code section 1.5. It is considered a promotional message and would require PAAB review. As an advertising message, bolding may be possible depending on the context. The appropriateness would be determined during the review process.
