About the IFRS Interpretations Committee
The IFRS Interpretations Committee (Committee) works with the IASB in maintaining and supporting the consistent application of IFRS Accounting Standards.
The Committee responds to questions about the application of the Accounting Standards and does other work at the request of the IASB.
The Committee comprises 14 voting members, appointed by the Trustees of the IFRS Foundation. The members provide the best available technical expertise and diversity of international business and market experience relating to the application of IFRS Accounting Standards. Read the criteria for Committee members.
Committee meetings take place in public; they are webcast and recorded. Staff papers and meeting recordings are available from the meeting pages via the calendar or the 'meetings' tab on this page.
Quarterly Interpretations Committee podcasts help stakeholders follow Committee discussions and provide an overview of other relevant activities in the period.
