The Boards also advise and make recommendations on standards and procedures relating to surveys for land title and tenures, and on the administration of survey matters. 

In addition, the Boards exercise certain disciplinary powers in cases where a surveyor is charged with negligence, incompetence, falsification or failure to observe the Survey Regulations.

Persons registered with a Board are deemed to be competent.
