National Body Comments Received
United Kingdom
The UK has some comments to make on the NW Proposal and the Project
Acceptance Criteria.
The question about requirements for coding has been answered NO. There
is a requirement for the language to be expressed in XML which may be
significant in terms of document presentation and the answer to this question
should be re-examined.
The Technical Status of the proposed project is unclear with both Mature
and Prospective Technology questions being answered YES. The UK considers that
SC 34 should have a clearer understanding of the status of the technology being
standardized.
The status of conformance to the proposed standard is unclear. Question
D1 indicates that there will be no Conformity Assessment but clause 4 of N226
is entitled Notes on Conformance. The UK considers that this needs
clarification.
