Could anyone please tell me if section 708.1 Shaft Enclosures of the '09 Commentary still includes reference to "interior stairways"?

It appears that they were included in the 2006 but removed from the 2012 Commentary and unfortunately we do not have a copy of the 2009 edition.

Thanks
 

2009 ICC COMM.

This section applies to vertical shafts, including thosereferenced by other sections of the code, namely: interiorexit stairways (see Section 1022.1); refuse andlinen-handling chutes (see Section 708.13); and elevator

and dumbwaiter hoistways (see Section 708.14).
