APEX may introduce proposed amendments to its rules and any proposed initiatives from time to time. APEX will issue a circular announcing the commencement of the public consultation of the proposed amendments or initiatives. APEX will provide a reasonable period of time for participants and the public to comment on the proposals. In most instances, a minimum period of 15 calendar days will be provided. After the close of a public consultation, APEX will review and study the feedback received. Where the feedback is substantive, or where the proposals have been revised to incorporate such feedback, APEX will provide a summary of the comments and APEX’s responses.

APEX invites the public to provide comments on proposed amendments to its rules and any proposed initiatives.
