Sector Updates – December 2015

December 2015
International Participation
New Field of Technical Activity – Halal
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has submitted a proposal for a new
field of activity on Halal. This new work item proposal has been submitted by the Emirates
Authority for Standardization & Metrology (ESMA) and the proposal details how strong
international demand for Halal products and services provides the opportunity for the
development of a work program focusing on this area.
The proposal lists various objectives and strategic goals for a future Halal-focused work
program, including:
• Develop and issue relevant standards and specifications in the field of processes and
management to ensure the safety, quality, and fitness of products in compliance with
Sharia laws and processes;
• Develop and issue internationally accepted standards to create a common platform for all
Halal products and services;
• Ensure proper awareness for both consumers and the public on Halal;
• Improve Halal products and ensure the services, systems, and other aspects are
satisfying the needs of governments and consumers;
• Identify current/future needs related to testing and verification schemes in JWG under the
leadership of CASCO (an ISO committee that works on issues relating to conformity
assessment);
• Identify and establish current/future needs related for Halal: testing, conformity
assessment, inspection, certification, and accreditation, and Halal marks of conformity on
cooperation with CASCO;
• Facilitate Halal trading without barriers;
• Satisfy Halal market needs and expectations;
For further information or to submit feedback, please contact Standards Australia
(bronwyn.walker@standards.org.au) by 9th of January 2016. All comments received will be
compiled and used in the development of a recommended Australian position.
