ISO/CASCO/WG 23 - Common elements in ISO/IEC Standards for conformity assessment activities
The working group is to identify common elements in ISO/IEC Standards for conformity assessment bodies and their activities to ensure full implementation of the policy on common elements in CASCO Standards (*). Consideration will be given to the result of the Joint Working Group CEN/CENELEC/TC 1 - ISO/CASCO, Investigation of the future structure of the conformity assessment standards and guides. (*) Policy on common elements in CASCO StandardsCASCO Standards shall be adequately coordinated to ensure that common elements in their texts have equivalent contents, unless there is justification for variations and/or deviations from the common elements.In order to achieve this goal, the CASCO Chairman's Advisory Group (CAG), as part of its management task of reviewing and coordinating the work of the CASCO WGs, shall review the working drafts of CASCO Standards developed by the relevant CASCO WGs and make the necessary coordination with the relevant CASCO WG Convenors at appropriate development stages of the projects. Working drafts of CASCO Standards shall be endorsed by the CASCO CAG in terms of the adequacy of any included common elements before the relevant projects are moved to the Committee Stage (i.e. CD vote among the CASCO member bodies).
