Publications

Please note that effective September 1, 2010, the Health Information Amendment Act came into force. Some of these publications, while still containing valuable information, do not reflect the changes that have been made. The Guide "Health Information - A Personal Matter" (amended version) provides the most up to date information. The remaining brochures will be updated shortly.
