the work scope of TC111, we propose that The
members of the drawing-up group should be widely
representative, it should ensure that the
representatives of developing countries attend
the conferenceperiod of transition should be
left in the use of restricted substances and in
environmental ideology design, and in electrical
and electronic products. Developed countries
should provide technical and financial support to
developing countries. (TC111 as a
whole) 2)?????????????????????,???????????,????

the proposal ,the detection program of
restricted substances in electrical and
electronic products, we suggest that principles
of dismantlement should be set in order to ensure
the consistency and comparability of the
detection results between labs. Parts of
detection methods lack of comparison and
certification. (WG3) 3)??????????????????????,????

conference of foundation of IEC/TC111/WG3 was
held in Paris. The attendants of the conference
are experts from ACEA special workgroup and WG3
workgroup, altogether 31. Two Chinese experts
participated all through in the discussion on
every chapters and sections of the draft standard
(1CD Draft),making revision comments and
suggestions on current problems in the draft
standard. The questions asked by the experts
attended the conference concentrate mainly on the
two following aspects A?Comprehension of
definition of homogenous materials
B?Dismantlement of Samples. As the two
questions are inseparable, each of the main views
has its reason. Finally, a decision was made that
a directory technical document should be made in
this workgroup, guiding the dismantlement of
samples.

The Spain conference of material declaration
workgroup was held at AFME (Association of
Manufacturers of Electronic Materials) in
Barcelona. Chinese experts were sent to attend
the conference. Before the conference, the
proposal from China delegate was further
specified, revised and perfected, and on which a
speech was made at the conference. During
the two-day conference, discussion was made
basically about whether or not the environmental
information of products should be included in the
material declaration. Some of delegate members
think thatParticular directory standards such as
questionnaire are badly needed to make out, while
there are many appraisal standards needed by
environmental information, and basic standards
for environmental appraisal are so different that
a uniform standard method accepted by
international society is too difficult to be
formed, which could hardly meet the requirements
of the market and related laws and
regulationsFrench delegate insists on including
environmental information of products, so as to
perfect material information and facilitate
following consumers and users. Japanese delegate
think that TC111 has set up the environmental
ideology design workgroup WG2, and the first
meeting of which will be held at the end of June,
so task of this part could be started within
workgroup WG2. Some delegates from other
countries think that the both ideas have
redeeming features,which need further study.

• IEC/TC111/WG2 workgroup experts from China did
  not attend the second meeting of the group, but
  they had always paid close attention to and kept
  tracing on all the information related to the
  workgroup. Chinese WG2 has set up a technical
  support group in charge of tracing and
  researching international standards by means of
  meetings and e-mails, discussed mainly the
  standard being drafted by the workgroup
  (IEC62430), and put forward some constructive
  proposals on standard drafting. Three experts
  have been sent for attending the third meeting in
  Thailand in Jan. 2006.

  documents of IEC/TC111 were distributed in time
  for the attendants to study and feed back related
  information. At the conference, Chinese delegate
  put forward the following ideas on the topics of
  the conference
• In view of the crossover of the business scope of
  three items material declaration,
  environmental information of products and
  environmental ideology design,the business
  scope of the item group shall be defined The
  setting of currently necessary material
  declarationand environmental ideology design
  standards shall be preferably ensured we will
  contact China National Standard Committee first
  and then decide on whether or not to assign
  observers to attend the environmental
  information of products item group.

• Introduce the thought line and experience in
  dismantlement of samples in China to the
  conference. After hearing the introduction by
  Chinese delegate, Chairman and General Secretary
  of the Conference suggested that China delegate
  draw up the frame principle of carrying out the
  dismantlement of samples, and submit it for
  discussion at the next conference. The attendants
  showed that they expected the document to come
  into being. The NP drafted up by China had been
  approved at the end of 2005, and submitted
  formally to the secretariat of IEC/TC111.

• Responding to the isolated view that the
  requirement of meeting the related laws and
  regulations such as ROHS, is the manufacturers
  liabilities, without need for the third partys
  declaration of conformity,Chinese delegate
  pointed out that whether or not the third partys
  declaration of conformity is necessary, should be
  decided on the level of economic and industrial
  development, we oughtn't to generalize about
  that. This right of choice should not be made out
  by the conference, instead, the manufacturers
  and users should enjoy the important right of
  speech and choice. The current condition is that
  either in developed countries or in developing
  countries, there are many users who need
  impartial third parties to present declaration of
  conformity. This view has been accepted by IECQ
  attendants and by the representatives from most
  of the technical organizations.

• Through the conference, we felt strongly that
  some developed countries have showed much concern
  on TC. They invited experts in various fields
  from individual country to form technical support
  group, and on the basis of studying the level of
  industry development and conditions of standard
  setting and revision in their own country, in
  accordance with the scope set up by TC111, and
  according to the interests of their own country,
  put forward several different NPs pertinently,
  trying to influence and dominate in the standard
  setting of international standards. Therefore,
  have each committee belonged to corresponding
  works, integrate current resources, make united
  plans, striving for efficient share of resource
  and information, setting up a platform with
  strong technical support for Chinas
  participation in establishing international
  standards.
