Sectoral InitiativeSectoral Initiative CROs (common regulstory objectives) address
legitimate government concerns (public health, safety, protection of the environment, interoperability, etc)
Reference to international standards Define:
– how compliance is assessed– which conformity assessment bodies are recognized as
competent,– what competence criteria are to be fulfilled– other flanking issues
55thth Meeting of the SIEEE Meeting of the SIEEE Melbourne – 2 September 2009Melbourne – 2 September 2009
In practice:In practice:Authorities decide to work together on a specific
sectorThey agree on CROsThey transpose the CROs into national technical
regulations Then, when products have been assessed in the
exporting country as compliant with the CROs they can automatically be sold in other markets with no further assessment.
