Really not sure if this is the correct stack exchange for this, but this seems like the right place. If there is a national council for for something, doesn't really matter what, but they are the only council for this in all the world, are their rulings technically correct all over the world?

I'm not sure if I explained this properly, please ask anything, and I will try to clarify if I was not clear enough.

No, each nation in the world is sovereign; that means the government of that nation decides what the law is for that nation.

If that government decides to create a "council" which has statutory powers then the laws they make are binding within their jurisdiction only.

If the council has no statutory power then it's just a group of guys getting together and saying stuff and it only applies to you if you decide it does.
