Over the past 50 years, the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) has developed and maintained a series of recommendations on regulatory cooperation, harmonization and standardization. These reflect best practices in quality infrastructure. They are used worldwide to simplify and harmonize regulations and standardization in quality infrastructure.
- Introduction
-
These recommendations are not binding and do not aim at rigidly aligning technical regulations across countries. Through these recommendations, the Working Party encourages rule makers to base their regulations on international standards to provide a common denominator to the norms that apply in different markets. It also seeks to promote agreements that enhance cooperation and mutual confidence in the technical competence, reliability and impartiality of other national bodies and institutions.
