The new ISO 20313 standard for the Cathodic Protection of ships chaired by Ken Lax was published on 30 January 2018.  This is a major achievement for the working group and especially for the UK mirror group participants (Pat Lydon, Winston Shepherd and Andrew Willis). 

The plenary meeting of ISO Technical Committee (TC) 8 and Sub Committee (SC) 8 – Ship design met on 31 January 2018 and complimented the working group on meeting all the deadlines and producing a good standard. 

The working group has now been disbanded, although the Chairman of TC8 SC8 requested Ken to remain on the sub-committee to provide assistance.
