WG2 has a Ideographic characters Rapporteur Group - IRG.

The document containing the Principles and Procedures for Allocation of New Characters and Scripts and handling of
Defect Reports on Character Names, is available.  A form for submitting proposals for addition to the repertoire of ISO/IEC 10646
is also available.
Experts who submit contributions for new scripts should also consult the roadmap documents
that show the placement of currently encoded scripts and candidate scripts for possible encoding in the standard.
