ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. "Procedures for the technical work". Eight Edition 2011. |
| Description |
At the approval stage, the final draft International Standard (FDIS) shall be distributed by the office of the CEO within 3 months to all national bodies for a 2 month vote. The final draft International Standard (FDIS) is circulated to all ISO member bodies by the ISO Central Secretariat for a final Yes/No vote within a period of two months. If technical comments are received during this period, they are no longer considered at this stage, but registered for consideration during a future revision of the International Standard. The text is approved as an International Standard if a two-thirds majority of the P-members of the TC/SC is in favour and not more than one-quarter of the total number of votes cast are negative. If these approval criteria are not met, the standard is referred back to the originating TC/SC for reconsideration in light of the technical reasons submitted in support of the negative votes received. |
