Explanatory note:
The section below sets out the information the monitoring body will provide to the AP. These include information concerning any suspension or exclusion of code members and any substantial changes to its own status.
It is envisaged that suspension or exclusion of code members will only apply in serious circumstances and code members would first have the opportunity to take suitable corrective measures as appropriate and agreed with the monitoring body.
Any substantial changes relating to the monitoring body’s ability to function independently and effectively, its expertise and any conflict of interests could result in a review of its accreditation.
Requirements:
Applications for monitoring body accreditation with all supporting documents, as set out as examples in the requirements above, and all other correspondence must be submitted to the AP in the Dutch or the English language.
The monitoring body shall evidence a clear framework to allow for reporting of any suspensions or exclusions of code members to the AP. This reporting shall require as a minimum:
inform the AP promptly and in writing of any suspension or exclusion providing valid reasons for the decision;
provide information outlining details of the infringement and actions taken; and
provide evidence that they have taken action in line with their suspension or exclusion process.
The monitoring body shall have a documented procedure for lifting the suspension or exclusion of a code member and notifying that code member and the AP of the outcome of the review or investigation.
Substantial changes to the monitoring body may include but are not limited to:
its legal, commercial, ownership or organisational status and key personnel;
resources and location(s); and
any changes to the basis of accreditation.
The monitoring body shall report any substantial changes to the AP immediately and without undue delay. Substantial changes would result in a review of the accreditation.
