Role
The Switch and Data Formats Group will review and provide advice on switching processes, as well as the exchanges of information between industry participants to ensure they remain efficient and fit for purpose as the industry evolves.
The Group reconvenes and amalgamates two dormant technical groups, the Standing Data Formats Group and the Switch Technical Group, so that advice can be delivered more effectively through one group.
