  === 3.3.11 Type Reuse ===
  It is possible that organisations that manage a large number of structure-specific schemas my wish to take advantage of the reuse of previously defined type in order to simply the structure-specific schema creation and lessen the number of schema elements which are created. The structure-specific formats are designed in such a way that this would be allowed without any adverse affects.
--For example, an organisation my create predefined types for all of [[codelists>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Code list.WebHome]] and [[concept schemes>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Concept scheme.WebHome]] which their structures utilize. These could be contained in a common schema with any namespace deemed appropriate. This would allow the structure-specific schemas generation process to recognize the reused [[components>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] and not be concerned with regenerating types. The logical flow for setting the [[representation>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Representation.WebHome]] of a [[component>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Component.WebHome]] might be as follows:
