The European Commission has welcomed the decision of the European Committee for Standardisation CEN to follow the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) in publishing electronic standards on-line and free of charge from January 2002. This decision is part of the “eEurope Standards Action Plan”, which is aimed at benefiting entrepreneurs by ensuring that new technology standards are sufficiently well-defined to make sure that information and communication technology (ICT) systems are inter-operable. e-Europe Action Plan standardisation work is sponsored by the Commission and carried out by European standards organisations CEN, CENELEC and ETSI. |
