# ISO/TC 215 NZ

This is our [national mirror committee of the ISO/TC 215 Health informatics technical committee](https://www.tewhatuora.govt.nz/health-services-and-programmes/digital-health/data-and-digital-standards/isotc-215-health-informatics-national-mirror-committee). Members are appointed by the [Standards Approval Board of New Zealand](https://www.standards.govt.nz/about/who-we-are/standards-approval-board). 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](https://www.tewhatuora.govt.nz/our-health-system/digital-health/data-and-digital-standards/health-information-standards-organisation-hiso/) on standards choices for national adoption.
