I have addressed these concerns with Paul Allen of IIROC and we generally agree with Hanno's suggestion. We propose amending the Gap Analysis as follows: 1. Removing InstrumentPartyStatus from the Gap Analysis. 2. Adding a new field called SecurityParticipationStatus, type int, description "Indicates market maker participation in security.", valid values: 0 = No participation 1 = Buy participation 2 = Sell participation 3 = Both buy and sell participation 3. Adding this as an optional field to Security Status, immediately following SecurityTradingStatus(326). 4. Updating the text of the document to reflect this, specifically section 3.2. Note that SecurityTradingStatus(326) also is used in the Market Data-related messages. SecurityParticipationStatus(TBD) could easily be extended into these messages as well. IIROC has no current business need to do so, however, so IIROC is not proposing changing these messages at this time.
