This service includes the development of local initiatives and resources, which have become required standards of the industry. Since 1999, the Hamilton Film Liaison Office has been a member of the Association of Film Commissioners International.

All film and television production activity in the City of Hamilton must be reported to and co-ordinated through the Hamilton Film Liaison Office, Economic Development Department. This includes all requests for permitting and their re-direction to the proper departments.
