Describing ISO clauses

What's the proper way to read a specific part of an ISO standard? For example: Control of Production and Service Provision contains requirements lettered “a” through “h.” Let's say the requirement not satisfied is letter “B,” can I refer to this as "Subclause 4.4.1, paragraph 2, item B"?

Answer
Normally, the paragraph is not mentioned. So, an auditor would refer to clause 4.4.1, item b).
