• Keep you informed of the progress of your enquiry at regular intervals.
• Let you know the outcome of your enquiry, or tell you the reasons why we cannot progress it.
• Give a high priority to matters involving safety and other urgent issues.
• Provide verification of weighing and measuring equipment on request.
