ISO/TC 215 NZ Hui November 2024

ISO/TC 215 NZ

This is our national mirror committee of the ISO/TC 215 Health informatics technical committee. Members are appointed by the Standards Approval Board of New Zealand. Our purpose is to have input to new and updated ISO standards through working groups and the ballot process. Having operated behind the scenes for a couple of years, we’re now sharing our work with the wider ehealthforum community.

Our role requires us to:

  • Monitor international work items, drafts and ballots through relevant ISO online services
  • Review the technical content of documents out ‘for comment’ and formulate a national perspective to International Standards development
  • Inform Standards NZ of the consolidated comments reached on new ISO work proposals (NP), committee draft (CD), draft international standard (DIS) and final draft international standard (FDIS) documents
  • Inform Standards NZ of the IRG vote on NP, CD, DIS and FDIS documents. With participating (P) membership there is an obligation to submit a vote on international ballots
  • Provide a valid technical justification for any negative votes submitted by the mirror committee
  • Inform Standards NZ of the consolidated position reached on International Standards under systematic review (each standard undergoes a 5 yearly systematic review)
  • Consult with their organisation/employer/association in order to take the organisation’s position into IRG committee meetings for discussion towards a consolidated national position/vote on international matters
  • Nominate a suitable expert to attend international meetings (if funding support is available to allow attendance)
  • Besides contributing to international standards, ISO/TC 215 NZ makes recommendations to HISO on standards choices for national adoption.

@alastairk I’d love to attend one of these meetings. I can’t make this one - got family arriving just beforehand. Would you be happy for me to sit in on one to see what work you do?

We welcome observers @Jacinta - I’ll send you an invitation to the session after
