Electronic Signatures

CWAs are CEN publications. Copies can be obtained from the CEN Member Organizations.

In addition, the CEN Members have agreed that certain CWAs may be provided on this web-site for electronic downloading free of charge. The CWAs concerned are produced by Workshops whose participants have concluded a special arrangement, or they relate to the eEurope standardization effort. Other CWAs may be purchased from a CEN Member.

CWAs are CEN copyright. Those made available for downloading are provided on the condition that they may not be modified, re-distributed, sold or repackaged in any form without the prior consent of CEN, and are only for the use of the person downloading them. For additional copyright information, please refer to the statements on the cover pages of the CWAs concerned.
