Altimeter Accuracy

For a commercial flight, I understand that the accuracy of the altimeter should be verified during the pre-flight checks on the ground to within +50 and -75 feet.

Where do these figures come from, i.e. is it JAR, CAA, ICAO or what?

A direct reference would be helpful.

Thanks.
