Technical body set up by the CENELEC Technical Board with a view to undertaking a specific short-term standardization task within a given target date. A BTTF is composed of a convenor and national delegations.
A BTTF reports to the Technical Board after each meeting. This report shall include details of the progress made since the previous report and include matters requiring a decision of the Technical Board. The submission of any draft document to the relevant procedure is subject to formal approval by the Technical Board.
Besides the convenor, and possibly an acting secretary, the BTTF consists of delegates of the CENELEC Members, nominated by them and speaking on their behalf. Not more than three delegates of any one member should normally attend a BTTF meeting at the same time. The Technical Board allocates the convenorship of a BTTF to a CENELEC Member. The convenor is appointed by the CENELEC Member holding the convenorship. The convenor may be supported by an acting secretary. Both the convenor and the acting secretary shall maintain strict impartiality and have no voting rights.
