Another, related case -

Not based on fees for charges for use of standards, but copyright and
argument that use of said standard might be harmful to businesses that
trusted the information: that is, incorporation of European Committee of
Banking Services standards into a web calculator.

Apparently Bank of Ireland should, in its view, be able to provide

issues of network trust, accountability and so on.

  ISO does not subsequently charge a fee for use of the codes in the
