Sector Update – August 2015

August 2015

International Participation

A workshop for developing an International Workshop Agreement on Drip irrigation will be held on 12-15 Oct in Tel Aviv, Israel

Following approval by the Technical Management Board of a proposal from SII (Israel), a workshop for the purpose of developing an International Workshop Agreement on Drip irrigation will be held at Crowne Plaza Hotel, Tel Aviv, Israel from 12 to 15 October.

An IWA is an ISO document produced through workshop meeting(s) and not through the technical committee process.

Any interested party can propose an IWA and can participate in developing one. An ISO member body will be assigned to organize and run the workshop meeting(s) resulting in the IWA. Market players and other stakeholders directly participate in IWA and do not have to go through a national delegation. An IWA can be produced on any subject.

– An IWA can be developed swiftly (published in less than 12 months) to address a rapidly emerging market need or public policy requirement.

– The ISO brand can give international recognition and credibility to your organization’s work.

– IWAs can be used as precursors to International Standards

For more information on the draft program and registration form, please email Tim Wheeler, National Sector Manager: [email protected], or Bronwyn Walker, National Sector Manager: [email protected] by 30 August 2015.

Proposal on a new field of technical activity: Rare Earth

The scope of this new field of technical activity is standardisation in the field of rare earth ores, concentrates, metals, alloys, compounds, materials, including the reuse and recycling of waste rare earth products.

It is proposed to develop a three-category standard system for the full life cycle of rare earth, the first category being basic standards; the second, testing and analysis standards; and the third, rare earth product standards.

– Category 1: Basic standards; terms and definitions; designation system; packing, marking, transport and storage;

– Category 2: Testing and analysis standards; chemical analysis of rare earth concentrates, metals and materials; determination of particle size and specific surface area of rare earth compounds;

– Category 3: Product standards; rare earth product standards from concentrates to materials, including reuse and recycling aspects.

Priorities will be given to the items listed in the first and second categories, because common understanding of definitions and common testing methods are essential for producers and users of rare earths globally. They are the base for the standardisation of rare earths internationally.

For more information or to provide any comments on this proposal, please email Jonathan Russell, National Sector Manager: [email protected], by 10 August 2015.

New proposal to establish an ISO Technical Committee: Vape and vapour products (TS/P 251)

A proposal to establish a new ISO technical committee on Vape and vapour products has been submitted by AFNOR (France). The scope of this proposal is as follows:

Standardization of requirements and test methods of vape and vapor products.

Standardization of product information and services related to the use of vapor products.

Note: These products are not intended to be used by children under eighteen.

Vape or vapor products refer to devices used to transform a consumable into an inhalable aerosol and also to the e-liquids intended for transformation into an aerosol. This definition covers a wide range of devices including electronic cigarettes, e-cigars, and e-pipes, which may be disposable or refillable by means of a refill container and a tank, or rechargeable with single use cartridges.

Most of the current consumables are liquids or gel consumables mainly composed of glycerol and propylene glycol, but considering the fast evolution of this growing market, new kinds of consumables might be reasonably foreseen.

The following are excluded from the scope of this committee:

• Tobacco products involving a combustion process (cigarettes, cigars, roll-your-own tobacco products).

• Smokeless tobacco products including chewing tobacco, nasal tobacco and tobacco for oral use.

• All kinds of consumable products containing tobacco or nicotine.

• Pharmaceutical products.

For further information, please contact Bronwyn Walker, at [email protected] by 18 September 2015.

New Projects

No new projects have been approved for development for the Health and Community Services Sector between 2 July 2015 and 5 August 2015.

ISO and IEC Guide for standards developers: Ensuring SMEs are considered when drafting standards

ISO and IEC have drafted a Guide for standards developers to take into account the needs of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) when writing standards.

This guide provides advice to writers of standards on the needs of SMEs in order to avoid the exclusion of SMEs from the market and the distortion of fair competition.

This guide is relevant to all stakeholders involved in standardization, such as standards writers in working groups (WGs), technical committees (TCs) or subcommittees (SCs) as well as members of national mirror committees. The principles in this guide may not necessarily apply to all standards.

Ultimately, standards developers in TCs, SCs and WGs should use these guidelines judiciously, as a tool where applicable, and evaluate how best to address the specific needs of SMEs in their standards.

This Guide contains:

a) considerations for the development of standards that are best adapted to SMEs' needs;

b) techniques for identifying and assessing provisions in standards that may especially impact SMEs;

c) ways to reduce negative impacts on SMEs resulting from some provisions in standards;

d) guidelines for writing SME-friendly standards;

e) a checklist;

f) information on the impact that new standards can have on micro enterprises.
