Since 1993, ETSC has brought together more than 150 internationally renowned experts from across EU Member States to forge consensus about research-based safety priorities. With the support of the Secretariat, this "pool" of independent experts has produced over 20 reviews with recommendations for action for presentation to ETSC's Main Council. Other actions include requests for advice from the Secretariat from time to time.
The working parties are established for the specific purpose of producing a review to which ETSC has committed in one of its projects. Each ETSC review is drafted by a working party of at least 10 independent experts. Working party members are chosen for their contributions as individual experts not as representatives of any organisation or country. Any advice given is expected to be free from commercial or national bias.
The tasks of the working parties are:
To provide technical support to ETSC's Main Council (link), the policymaking committee of ETSC. The Main Council of ETSC comprises representatives from international and national safety, technical, research, insurance and user organisations.
To help ETSC to ensure that its advice to policymakers in Europe is based on the best information available.
To assist ETSC in the identification of research based solutions and best practice internationally where the greatest opportunities lie for reductions in transport crashes and casualties.
To assist ETSC in the preparation of reviews, policy papers and fact sheets directed at policymakers from across the European Union.
