Summary: Attached please find the relationships of ITU-T Study Group 17 with ISO, IEC or
ISO/IEC JTC 1.
TSB Note: Rapporteurs are invited to review the status of the relationship for their Question and
report on any necessary changes.
In response to WTSA-12 Resolution 7, Collaboration with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) and to an earlier
TSAG request (see 9.1/TSAG R 26, January 2008), SG17 maintains a table that lists SG17
relationships with Technical Committees (TCs) of ISO and IEC and Subcommittees (SCs) of
ISO/IEC JTC 1.
Attention is drawn to the last column (level) which identifies the nature of the relationship as
follows:
Level 1: joint work (e.g., common texts or twin texts)
Level 2: technical collaboration by liaison mechanism
Level 3: informational liaison
