The BRT first addressed 'Sustainable Development' in a pilot way at its 2003 annual meeting. By the time of the 2004 meeting, a formal 'Sustainable Development' working party had been created. Over the years the exact title of the working parties have evolved to reflect their changing remit.

Since 2009, the BRT has released several sets of Recommendations in these areas:
