9. Assessment results vs. EC's later publication decisions
EC does not have to follow the recommendations of the Consultant, but if they do:
“Compliant” recommends that it is suitable for listing
“Lack of compliance” recommends that it is not suitable for listing
ETSI can challenge the assessment report (but would need grounds to do so, and would need to supply evidence)
