The NSAI Committee, NSAI TC 063, was and continues to be responsible for the development of I.S. 465.

The table below lists companies and bodies represented on the technical committee which developed I.S. 465 in 2018 and its amendment in 2020.

The committee’s composition remains the same for work currently underway on amendment of I.S. 465, except for Ground Investigations Ireland and Fastnet Analytical who are no longer involved.

NSAI keeps membership of the committee constantly under review so as to endeavour to have a balanced representation within the constraints imposed by availability of suitable experts and interested stakeholders, and the voluntary nature of the committee.
