Continuing assessments. It is a condition of granting a Certificate of Conformity that continuing assessments shall be carried out to ensure that the criteria defined in the Scheme Standards are being met and maintained. Where non-compliances to the scheme standard are identified at an assessment, documentary corrective action or a further assessment in accordance with the scheme regulations may be required to maintain the certification status. Change of status may, depending on scheme requirements, be a change of certification grade reflecting change in assessment frequency or notification of withdrawal of approval. If approval is withdrawn the reason will be clearly specified in writing to the producer. Should the producer wish to appeal against the withdrawal of a Certificate of Conformity the appeal will be heard in the manner described in these Rules Governing Certification (section 5).
