4. Registration of suppliers

 

4.1 The SABS may at the request of a supplier cause any act executed by him or any method or procedure followed by him in connection therewith to be assessed for compliance with the provisions of a code of practice specified in a registration scheme and may from time to time make such further assessments or audits as it may deem necessary.

 

4.2 A supplier who has been assessed and found to comply with the provisions of the relevant code of practice in accordance with regulation 4.1 shall be entitled to have his name, together with such description of his activities as the SABS may deem desirable registered whereupon he shall be deemed to be a registered supplier.

 

4.3 Subject to the provisions in regulation 6.2 a supplier who conducts his business from more than one factory or premises, and who requires registration in respect of each of such premises shall be required to apply for registration in respect of each individual factory or premises in accordance with regulation 4.1.

 

4.4 The SABS may for the purpose of any registration scheme compile a list of registered suppliers and may issue such list in any manner and containing such information that it may deem expedient, and may remove the name of any registered supplier, whose registration has been withdrawn or suspended in terms of regulation 4.6, from any such list.

 

4.5 A registered supplier may publish the particulars relating to his registration provided that the publication of information additional to that contained in the list contemplated in regulation 4.4 shall be subject to the approval of the SABS.

 

4.6 The SABS may at any time suspend or withdraw any registration effected in terms of regulation 4.2 due to non-compliance by a registered supplier with the conditions of a registration scheme, and may in its discretion at any time re-instate any registration so suspended or withdrawn, upon such conditions as it may deem expedient. Provided that if the registration in respect of one of the premises or factories of a registered supplier in regulation 6.2 has been suspended or withdrawn, such suspension or withdrawal is applicable to all the premises and/or factories indicated on the certificate of registration.
