CEN and CENELEC representation in official meetings

In recent years, a number of representatives have been appointed by the CEN/CENELEC Governing Bodies (AGs, CAs, BTs) to represent the interests of CEN/CENELEC in external groups (e.g. European Commission Expert groups) and specific events (e.g. UN/EC, conferences).
Given the important role that these representatives play, it is necessary to define their roles and responsibilities and make them aware of the expected commitment, in order to ensure that they:
- act in line with the CEN and CENELEC Strategy 2030 (and subsequent strategies beyond 2020);
- are informed of the policies, priorities and positions of the organizations (CEN, CENELEC or CEN-CENELEC) they represent;
- understand the message and priorities to be conveyed;
- provide effective and efficient reporting and feedback to the CEN/CENELEC Governing Bodies.
To this end, once appointed, the representative is to abide by the stipulations of the guidance document as included in Annex A, which identifies a set of basic practices to be followed to ensure proper coordination, reporting and follow-up.
The list of appointed representatives is kept by CCMC. Regular updates will be provided to the CEN/CENELEC Governing Bodies.
Note: This Guide does not apply to the appointment of elected CEN and CENELEC Officers.

1 Executive Summary
In recent years, a number of representatives have been appointed by the CEN/CENELEC
Governing Bodies (AGs, CAs, BTs) to represent the interests of CEN/CENELEC in external groups
(e.g. European Commission Expert groups) and specific events (e.g. UN/EC, conferences).
Given the important role that these representatives play, it is necessary to define their roles and
responsibilities and make them aware of the expected commitment, in order to ensure that
they:
• act in line with the CEN and CENELEC Strategy 2030 (and subsequent strategies
beyond 2020);
• are informed of the policies, priorities and positions of the organizations (CEN,
CENELEC or CEN-CENELEC) they represent;
• understand the message and priorities to be conveyed;
• provide effective and efficient reporting and feedback to the CEN/CENELEC Governing
Bodies.
To this end, once appointed, the representative is to abide by the stipulations of the guidance
document as included in Annex A, which identifies a set of basic practices to be followed to
ensure proper coordination, reporting and follow-up.
The list of appointed representatives is kept by CCMC. Regular updates will be provided to the
CEN/CENELEC Governing Bodies.
Note: This Guide does not apply to the appointment of elected CEN and CENELEC Officers.
1.1 Role
The representatives represent the CEN/CENELEC interests in those groups to which they were

are stipulated in their mandate and as laid down in the associated decision/resolution of the
Governing Body concerned.
Their actions and activities shall be in line with the CEN-CENELEC Strategy 2030 (and
subsequent strategies beyond 2020).
The representatives shall ensure the necessary coordination with relevant CEN/CENELEC
groups so that any position that is put forward shall be based on the consensus of these bodies.
When representatives express opinions that were not previously agreed by the relevant
CEN/CENELEC group they represent, they have to make clear that these represent personal
views.
1.2 Tasks/Responsibilities
The appointed representative shall:
• get acquainted with the relevant CEN/CENELEC policies and rules which have an
impact on the topics covered by his/her assignment;
• before attending a meeting, coordinate (in close cooperation with CCMC) with the
