This British Standard sets out the principles of standardization undertaken by the British Standards Institution (BSI) in its role as the UK National Standards Body (NSB).
The principles encompass the development, publication, maintenance and application of British Standards and related standardization documents, together with the UK’s participation in European and international standardization.
The principles set out in this document do not include discussion of BSI’s non-NSB activities, nor detailed discussion of the rules and procedures of the international and European standardization bodies.
