National Measurement Regulations 1999

On verification of a standard of measurement, the verifying authority must mark the standard with a statement of:

the date of verification; and

if, under regulation 30, the standard has a value equal to its denomination—that fact.

However, if compliance with subregulation (1) is impracticable because of the nature, shape or size of a standard of measurement, the standard is taken to comply with subregulation (1) if it is enclosed in a sealed container that is marked in accordance with subregulation (1).
