| Publisher Description: The NCWM Committee on Laws and Regulations (the Committee), acting at the request of the Conference or upon its own initiative, prepares with the technical assistance of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), proposed amendments or additions to the material adopted by the Conference (see Paragraph C). Such revisions, amendments or additions are then presented to the Conference as a whole where they are discussed by weights and measures officials and representatives of interested manufacturers, industries, consumer groups, and others. Eventually the proposals of the Committee, which may have been amended on the floor, are voted upon by the weights and measures officials. Following the voting procedures adopted by the NCWM in 1978, a national consensus is required on all items adopted by the Conference. A Uniform Law or Regulation is adopted when a majority of the states' representatives, and other voting delegates favoring such adoption, vote for approval. |
