Welcome to the Website of the National Advisory Committee (NAC) on Blood & Blood Products

The National Advisory Committee on Blood and Blood Products (NAC) is a Canadian national committee of recognized experts in the field of transfusion medicine funded by the provincial and territorial governments.

Formerly known as the National Technical Working Group on Blood and Blood Products (NTWG), NAC was created in 2002 to provide medical and technical advice on the utilization management of blood and blood products to the provincial and territorial Ministries of Health as well as to the Canadian Blood Services (CBS).

NAC consists of a core group of blood bankers and representatives from Canadian Blood Services that reports to the P/T CBS Blood Liaison Committee. NAC has invited participation from each province and territory.
