(7) European standardisation is governed by a specific legal framework consisting of three different legal acts, namely Directive 98/34/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 June 1998 laying down a procedure for the provision of information in the field of technical standards and regulations and of rules on Information Society services OJ L 204, 21.7.1998, p. 37. , Decision No 1673/2006/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 October 2006 on the financing of European standardisation OJ L 315, 15.11.2006, p. 9. and Council Decision 87/95/EEC of 22 December 1986 on standardisation in the field of information technology and telecommunications OJ L 36, 7.2.1987, p. 31. . However, the current legal framework is no longer up to date with developments in European standardisation over recent decades. Therefore, the current legal framework should be simplified and adapted in order to cover new aspects of standardisation to reflect those latest developments and future challenges in European standardisation. That relates in particular to the increased development of standards for services and the evolution of standardisation deliverables other than formal standards.
