When was the formation of ISO/TC 212 approved?

CLSI proposed the formation of a new international standards technical committee, focused on the coordination of international standardization in the clinical laboratory testing field, to the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). ANSI brought the proposal to the ISO Technical Management Board (TMB). In 1995, the TMB approved the proposal and created the technical committee, designated ISO/TC 212, Clinical laboratory testing and in vitro diagnostic test systems.
