COMMISSION DECISION of 15 July 1992 amending the lists of standards institutions annexed to Council Directive 89/189/EEC (92/400/EEC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 83/189/EEC of 28 March 1983 laying down a procedure for the provision of information in the field of technical standards and regulations (1), as last amended by Commission Decision 90/230/EEC (2),

Having regard to the opinion of the Standing Committee set up by Article 5 of that Directive,

Whereas the Commission, in its 1987 Green Paper on telecommunications, recommended a substantial increase in standardization activity in the Community, in particular by means of the creation of a European standardization body in the telecommunications field;

Whereas the PTT authorities of the countries of the European Conference of Postal and Telecommunications Administrations (CEPT) acted on this recommendation from the Commission in March 1988 by setting up ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards Institute), a non-profit-making association under French law;

Whereas the set of rules of the procedure adopted by the ETSI General Assembly on 21 November 1990, on 7 March 1991 and on 3 April 1992 designed to ensure its smooth functioning as a European standardization body after the start-up phase;

Whereas the Member States responded positively to the Council resolution of 27 April 1989 on standardization in the field of information technology and telecommunications (3), and in particular to the call for national standardization bodies to be nominated without delay to take part in the procedure for the adoption of ETSI standards;

Whereas CEN, Cenelec and ETSI responded favourably to this resolution, in particular by setting up a Joint Presidents Group of CEN, Cenelec and ETSI in December 1989, signing a general agreement on cooperation between the three bodies in June 1990, and defining the terms of reference for collaboration within the ITSTC (Information Technology Steering Committee),

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

The lists annexed to Directive 83/189/EEC are hereby replaced by the lists annexed to this Decision.
