The article contains a brief characteristics of the draft annual programme of EU works for European standardization in 2015 sent out for feedback to national standardization units of EU member nations. The main focus is on those provisions of the document that may be meaningful from the point of view of European standardization development – both short-term and long-term – in the area of general social standardization, as well as in the areas important to defence and security, on a national level. References are made to the contents of the most important legal documents of the European Parliament and the appropriate Commissions, especially the European Parliament and Council decree no. 1025/2012 dated 25 October 2012 on European standardization, and the ‘European standardization system strategy 2020’ developed in March 2013 as an element of the ‘Europe 2020’ strategy realization, in the field of standardization.
