(4) In the past years, the practices in the European standardisation organisations as regards their internal governance and decision-making procedures have changed. As a result, the European standardisation organisations have increased their co- operation with international and European stakeholders. Such cooperation is welcome as it contributes to the transparent, open, impartial and consensus-built standardisation process. However, when European standardisation organisations execute standardisation requests to support Union legislation and policies, unrestricted participation of any stakeholder in their internal decision-making may lead to decisions that do not entirely take into account the interests, policy objectives, and values of the Union as well as public interests in general. In order to prevent this scenario, the positions of European stakeholders should be duly reflected in the decisions of the European standardisation organisations and of the national standardisation bodies. Furthermore, the participation of legal entities which are not incorporated in the Member State concerned shall not amount to impede the adoption of any decision concerning European standards and European standardisation deliverables supported by the majority of all the other stakeholders participating in the national standardisation bodies.

(5) National standardisation bodies play an essential role in the standardisation system, both, at the Union level, in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012, and at the level of Member States. National standardisation bodies are therefore best placed to make sure that the interests, policy objectives and values of the Union as well as the views of all stakeholders, including SMEs, consumer organisations, environmental and social stakeholders, and public interests in general are duly taken into account in European standardisation organisations. It is therefore necessary to strengthen their role in decision-making bodies of the European standardisation organisations when those bodies take decisions concerning European standards and European standardisation deliverables requested by the Commission under Article 10(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012.
