11. It has been suggested by the NOS regulator that we should look at importing pan sector standards to cover the same content as some of our generic skills NOS within this suite.

The industry expert group is in the view that we should retain and update our creative industry specific NOS for the functions covered in this suite simply because they are tailored to meet the needs of our industry and they are also used across all creative industries including theatre, stage, live events, cultural heritage, sound and music production etc.
