Committees

Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) documents are developed by document development committees composed of experts in medical testing activities, or ancillary aspects of these activities, around which the document development committee was formed. The primary responsibility of the document development committees is drafting consensus documents and evaluating and addressing comments received during each phase of the consensus process. Development of CLSI standards is a dynamic process. Each CLSI area committee is committed to producing consensus documents related to a specific discipline, as described in its mission statement.

Famous quotes containing the word committees:

    Cry cry what shall I cry?
    The first thing to do is to form the committees:
    The consultative councils, the standing committees, select committees and sub-committees.
    One secretary will do for several committees.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    When committees gather, each member is necessarily an actor, uncontrollably acting out the part of himself, reading the lines that identify him, asserting his identity.... We are designed, coded, it seems, to place the highest priority on being individuals, and we must do this first, at whatever cost, even if it means disability for the group.
    Lewis Thomas (b. 1913)

    ... in the minds of search committees there is the lingering question: Can she manage the football coach?
    Donna E. Shalala (b. 1941)
