Decides that the CIML shall proceed to vote on the Amendment to OIML B 10:2012 in the current meeting under Agenda item 9.4.3.

Approves the Draft Amendment to OIML B 10.

Approves the following text as the OIML statement on the new SI to be submitted to the BIPM in response to Resolution 1 (2011) of the CGPM: "The OIML supports the CGPM's intention to revise the SI in order that it will continue to meet the needs of science, technology, and commerce in the 21st century. From the inquiry amongst the OIML Technical Committees TC2, TC9, TC9/SC3 and TC11, and the CIML Members, it is concluded that the new SI definitions are considered to have little to no impact on routine measurements of time, length, luminous intensity, electric current, temperature, amount of substance, and related derived SI quantities. A potential impact may be on accurate mass measurements using class E weights according to OIML R 111. The OIML considers the careful adherence to the 2010 recommendations of the CCM as fundamental for the redefinition of the kilogram in order to avoid potential negative impact on routine mass measurements. The OIML supports the intention of the CGPM to further improve formulations for the definitions of the SI base units so that the new SI remains understandable to all those who need it."

Noting the procedure for the selection of candidates to a vacant Vice-President post in B 14,
