## Policy Analysis Report: Amendment to Bureau of Indian Standards Notifications and Establishment of New Indian Standards
**1. Executive Summary:**
This report analyzes an amendment to a notification by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) and the establishment of new Indian Standards, as published in the Gazette of India. The amendment corrects a date error related to the establishment of IS 17423:2021. Furthermore, the BIS establishes three new Indian Standards relating to Tapioca Sago (IS 899:2022), Carbon Papers (IS 3450:2022), and Leather Safety Footwear (IS 14544:2022), while concurrently maintaining older versions of these standards until their designated withdrawal dates. These changes impact manufacturers, suppliers, and consumers within the respective industries, ensuring products meet updated specifications.
**2. Introduction:**
This report provides an analysis of the provided notification from the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), focusing on both a specific amendment to a previous notification and the establishment of new Indian Standards. The analysis is based solely on the information provided within the document.
**3. Policy Overview:**

* **Amendment:** The amendment addresses an error in the date of establishment for IS 17423:2021. This correction ensures accurate record-keeping and avoids potential confusion regarding the standard's effective date.
* **New Standards:** The establishment of new standards indicates a need to update specifications for Tapioca Sago, Carbon Papers, and Leather Safety Footwear. This may be due to advancements in technology, changes in industry practices, or the need to improve product quality and safety.
