Post Brexit - Why are we still permitting CENELEC etc to influence how we govern our own engineering affairs?

There seems to be a repeating mantra throughout the youtube presentation which becomes irksome if you listen for long enough. It seems that we just adopt, or rather 'harmonize' without question and then defer the responsibility for decision making back to CENELEC rather than think it through and act for ourselves.

How is it that we allow the tail to wag the dog? Isn't it time that we departed from harmonization and went our own way?

Comments welcome

    Probably easier that way when you note the sizes of the tail and dog.

  • I am more concerned about the prospect of rubber stamping rather than questioning the need. Some alignment makes sense, some does not, especially if it brings extra costs but no tangible benefit.
