Verification of standards of measurement
13 Verification of standards of measurement
On application under regulation 12, the verifying authority:
may verify a standard of measurement; and
if the standard is verified—must issue a certificate of verification to the applicant; and
may issue a copy of the certificate to anyone else the authority considers should be given a copy.
The Chief Metrologist may verify a standard of measurement other than on application.
A verifying authority other than the Chief Metrologist:
may, with the written consent of the Chief Metrologist, reverify a standard of measurement otherwise than on application; but
is not otherwise authorised to verify or reverify a standard of measurement otherwise than on application.
Regulation 90AB preserves rights and entitlements accrued in relation to verifications and reverifications conducted before the commencement of paragraph (2A)(a).
If the standard of measurement is verified under the supervision of a verifying authority, the authority may verify the standard.
The verifying authority must not verify a standard of measurement mentioned in paragraph (a) of the definition of standard of measurement in subsection 3(1) of the Act unless the standard bears a mark that identifies the standard.
