At a certain point one wonders: " why important Engineering (and Science) UK Organizations such as The Society of Petroleum Engineers(SPE), The Institute of Motor Industry (IMI), The Royal Society of Chemistry(RSC), to name but a few, prefer staying out from the EC "umbrella" ?

    Thank you for your clarification, CEng Waserman


    Sorry for my"lapsus" with the USA SPE, but I have to point out about IBI and RSC what is following:

    As far as I remember the former ( IMI ) entered under the EC umbrella more than 20 years ago but it wiithdrew almost immediately from the EC  Professional Engineering Institutions agglomerate, the latter (RSC) is on the same position of the Institute of Physics ( IoP ) that became a Licensed  Professional Engineering Institute (!?), instead!
