1. Is the Standard implemented in your Office's/Organization's practice? (Please choose one of the options below)

  •  Completely
  •  Partly
  •  Not Implemented

2. If the answer was "Partly", please explain your Office's/Organization's practice briefly:

3. If the answer was "Not Implemented", does your Office/Organization plan to implement the Standard?

The decision regarding whether we will implement the standard, and if so when we will do so, has not been made yet. If the standard continues to gain acceptance by other offices, we might also follow it. A possible option would be to supply data from our register (perhaps additionally) in ST.96. However, there is a strong dependence of third parties downloading our data, which we would need to respect.

4. Comments (optional)
