Overview

An Maintainable structure is one that is owned and can be independently created and maintained by an Agency.

A Data Structure Definition is maintainable because it does not have to be managed as part of any other structure. By contrast, a Code is not maintainable because because it must always be managed under a Codelist.

A Maintainable structure is both Inentifiable and Nameable, it also must contain a reference to the Agency that is responsible for maintaining it.
