The work of preparingInternational Standards is normally carried out through ISO technicalcommittees. Each member body int
20、erested in a subject for which a technicalcommittee has been established has the right to be represented on thatcommittee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, inliaison with ISO, also take part in the work.Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees
21、are circulatedto the member bodies for approval before their acceptance as InternationalStandards by the ISO Council. They are approved in accordance with ISOprocedures requiring at least 75 % approval by the member bodies voting.International Standard ISO 11699-2 was prepared by Technical Committee
