Mr. James Gavin:
Yes, it is a cargo company. There are known consigners which secure their own produce at source.
Known consigners would secure their produce at source. This could be an IT company producing computers. It can secure its produce on site and then move it to the airport and the aircraft. It does not have to go through any more screening. It could be in-flight suppliers who provide the meals, newspapers and goods sold on board an aircraft. There are certified hauliers. These would be hauliers that are part of that security supply chain and they require security approvals. That is probably enough examples.
