The work of developing International Standards is carried out throughISO technical committees.Every member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been set up has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with iso, also take part in the work. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for approval before their acceptance as International Standards by the ISo Council. International Standard ISO 6348 was developed by Technical Committee ISO/TC 38, Textiles, and was circulated to the member bodies in November 1978. It has been approved by the member bodies of the following countries : Australia Germany, F.R. Portugal Belgium Ghana Romania Brazil India South Africa, Rep.of Bulgaria Israel Spain Canada Italy Sweden Cyprus Japan Switzerland Czechoslovakia Korea, Rep. of Turkey Denmark Mexico United Kingdom Egypt, Arab Rep. of Netherlands USA Finland New Zealand USSR France Poland Yugoslavia The member body of the following country expressed disapproval of the document on technical grounds : Hungary International Organization for Standardization, 1980.
