Euralarm cosigns joint industry paper on Evaluation of Regulation (EU) 1025/2012 on European Standardisation

The signatories, are representing industries contributing to and relying on a resilient, reliable framework for setting standards in Europe. As such, they fully support the EU Strategy on Standardisation’s goal of making the European standardisation system more functional and agile. In line with these goals, the signatories suggest using the chance of the evaluation of Regulation (EU) 1025/2012 to strengthen transparency, scrutiny and democratic values in European standardisation, as well as the flexibility of European standardisation on an international stage, to provide European industry with a competitive edge.

To do so we propose to introduce transparent rules for Formal Objections and for the timelines of the standardisation process, as well as set clear proceedings for the definition of transition periods for Harmonised European Standards (hEN) and ensure regular publication at fixed dates of new hENs in the Official Journal of the EU.
