<strong>BT</strong> N <strong>9056</strong><br />
2012-11-23<br />
CCMC suggested that once the supplement had been drafted, it could be proposed to ISO for a revised Guide<br />
64, eventually resulting in a harmonised document.<br />
With regard to <strong>BT</strong> N 9015, Bob Brett further presented the results of the Resource Efficiency project, on which<br />
the EC laid great store.<br />
This document was submitted for noting in view of a future proposal to be circulated by CCMC for <strong>BT</strong> decision<br />
by correspondence. CCMC pointed out that certain items in the document may require further consideration by<br />
CCMC and the members (e.g. final approval of the report produced by the consultant, access to documents,<br />
CCMC IT systems,…).<br />
Bob Brett was thanked for his presentations.<br />
5.1.2 SF Rail<br />
Bernard Alibert, Rapporteur for the Sector Forum Rail, presented the current activities in this sector and<br />
highlighted a discussion that took place within JPC Rail about the setting up of a possible CEN-CLC/TC. CCMC<br />
stressed that the main issue here was the mandate on urban rail for which the work programme had been<br />
agreed upon by CEN and CENELEC/<strong>BT</strong>s and of which the items are allocated to CEN/TC 256 and CLC/TC 9X.<br />
However, one of the work items deals with a topic which should be handled under mode 5 cooperation (i.e.<br />
‘Urban Rail Fundamental Requirements’) and for which the Rapporteur confirmed that, following consensus<br />
within JPC Rail, it was ready for circulation to UAP. The misunderstanding that arose at JPC Rail level was<br />
about the wording of IR part 2, clause 4.2.1.3.1, namely "In this case, the pre-existing Technical Committee or<br />
Working Group shall be disbanded at the time when the joint Technical Committee or joint Working Group is<br />
created". CCMC pointed out that it is of course the possible work associated with the concerned work item that<br />
is to be stopped and that there is no reason whatsoever to disband both CEN/TC 256 and CLC/TC 9X.<br />
Considering the urgency to have the above mentioned document published, it was suggested to progress it<br />
under the responsibility of both <strong>BT</strong>s (without setting up a dedicated joint TC).<br />
CCMC will submit a suggestion for improved wording of clause 4.2.1.3.1 of the IR Part 2 to the WG R&P.<br />
Bernard Alibert was thanked for his useful intervention.<br />
5.1.3 Construction<br />
-Presentation<br />
-<strong>BT</strong>/WG 206 'Lead Market Initiative' - report<br />
<strong>BT</strong> N 9019<br />
John Moore, Rapporteur for the Construction sector, gave a presentation, referring to <strong>BT</strong> N 9017 which had<br />
been distributed for information before the meeting.<br />
His report highlighted three main elements: Construction Products Regulation, <strong>BT</strong>/WG 206 'Lead Market<br />
initiative' and BIM (Building Information Modelling).<br />
With regard to the template for Annex ZA, Andy Vaughan asked whether this had an impact on the Annex ZA for<br />
the healthcare sector, to which it was confirmed that this was specific to the Construction sector.<br />
BSI alerted members to the fact that the CPR makes CE mandatory in all Member States. As the CPR also<br />
establishes many construction-related standards as being the only route for demonstrating compliance with the<br />
CPR, this has the effect of making these standards mandatory. It was considered that this could have significant<br />
commercial implications. Whilst not a technical matter, BSI believed that members should be conscious of the<br />
likelihood that they could face calls for such standards to be made available free of charge.<br />
With regard to <strong>BT</strong> N 9019 and <strong>BT</strong>/WG 206 'Lead Market Initiative', it was suggested that its activities be<br />
allocated to the Core Group with the possible expansion of its expertise. FIEC echoed this view. A proposal for<br />
disbandment of <strong>BT</strong>/WG 206 and continuation of its work within the Core Group would be circulated by<br />
correspondence after this meeting.<br />
With regard to BIM, it was hoped that a final report to <strong>BT</strong> would be made by April 2013. The <strong>BT</strong> Chairman<br />
wished the Rapporteur success for continuation with this and the final document. He was thanked for his<br />
presentation and recommendations.<br />
5.1.4 Healthcare<br />
Andy Vaughan, Rapporteur for the Healthcare sector, made a presentation with the Healthcare sector's advice<br />
to make certain information crucial to the users, in particular the SME's, freely available i.e. Foreword, Scope<br />
and Annex ZA/ZZ. The <strong>BT</strong> Chairman highlighted that the scopes were already publicly available on the internet.
