ISO/TC 85 Liaisons
Liaisons can be established between ISO committees, between ISO committees and committees of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), and between ISO committees and external organizations. These relationships facilitate the sharing of information and expertise, and ensure that a broad range of stakeholders have been heard.
1 - External Organisations
Liaison with an external organization ensures that the organization’s specialist experience and expertise are included during the committee drafting process.
1.1 - IAEA, International Atomic Energy Agency
The International Atomic Energy Agency is the world's central intergovernmental forum for scientific and technical co-operation in the nuclear field. It works for the safe, secure and peaceful uses of nuclear science and technology, contributing to international peace and security and the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals.

The IAEA safety standards has three categories:
- Safety Fundamentals (SF) presents the fundamental safety objective and principles of protection and safety and provides the basis for the safety requirements.
- Safety Requirements establish the requirements that must be met to ensure the protection of people and the environment, both now and in the future.
The General Safety Requirements (GSR) and the Specific Safety Requirements (SSR) include overarching requirements and associated requirements - Safety Guides (GSG and SSG) provide recommendations and guidance on how to comply with the safety requirements, indicating an international consensus that it is necessary to take the measures recommended (or equivalent alternative measures).

2 - Technical committees
Liaisons between ISO committees ensure that common interests are being addressed and the right experts are involved in the development of standards. This type of liaison helps prevent scope overlaps and ensures that referenced documents aren’t updated without notifying other committees with a vested interest in the work.
