  6. Common US voice domestically and internationally on recognition/accreditation policy issues • Stakeholders need one trustworthy place to discuss specifics on laboratory accreditation in the United States • That place should represent all stakeholders in the process • That place should be unbiased • That place should be able to make policy for the United States for both Accreditation Bodies and Accredited Labs
