That is correct.

Some NEN.CEN standards are free to obtain in the Netherlands because of a 
contract between the government and the SDO.
Recently the ISO policy is to publish all informative parts of the standard but 
not the normative parts.

Experts nominated by countries have a larger access to full stadard in the 
context of standards creation/maintenance.

It is my opinion that the SDO’s need an other business model such that 
standards are made available for free.
