> 
> As you may know, subject to a few exceptions, the INCITS policy is to adopt all ISO/IEC or ISO standards that fall within its program of work as ?Identical? American National Standards in accordance with the ANSI ?Expedited Procedures for the Identical Adoption of an ISO or IEC standard as an American National Standard?. Similarly, INCITS will withdraw any such adopted American National Standard that has been withdrawn as an ISO/IEC or ISO International Standard. Exceptions to this policy will be made, on a case by case basis, provided that a case for the exception has been demonstrated to INCITS.

> Attached (document 00218) is an excerpt from the INCITS Organization, Policies and Procedures, Section 4.5, Adoption of ISO/IEC JTC 1 and ISO Standards as American National Standards. This policy is being circulated to you to consider approving an ?always adopt? policy for the committee when new international standards, technical reports or technical specifications are published. 
> 
> 
> 
> Normally, the committee has three months to consider if an international publication should be adopted or not followed by a vote of the committee. If the committee decides there is a published ISO/IEC standard or part of a standard believed to be unqualified for adoption, then the rationale (with committee vote) must be submitted to the INCITS Executive Board for consideration.  
> 
> 
> 
> By having an always adopt policy in place, it saves the committee the time of individually reviewing each published ISO/IEC standard for adoption and each published ISO/IEC technical report or specification for registration as ANSI technical report. Note, a committee can submit a request to the INCITS Executive Board for the non-adoption of a standard, even though it has an ?always adopt? policy in place.

> If this PL22.3 letter ballot receives the required approval, then PL22.3 will have an approved ?Always Adopt? policy. No comments were received during an earlier comment period.
