About Technical Committees (TCs)
Technical Committees (TCs) are the cornerstone of the ESWASA standards development process. They are composed of volunteers who are qualified in the subject matter and represent a balance of interested parties, including producers, users, consumers, government, and other relevant stakeholders.
TCs are responsible for developing, maintaining, and revising Eswatini National Standards (SZNS) within their specific technical areas. They ensure that standards are developed through a consensus-based process, reflecting the needs and expertise of all relevant parties.
