Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Issues Relating to Quarries and Deleterious Materials: Discussion
Mr. Richard Butler:
The Department notified us, as the market surveillance authority, and we immediately issued a corrective action notice under section 14(1) of the European Union (Construction Products) Regulations 2013 to the economic operator informing it that it did not have a factory control certificate and, therefore, it could not sell the product under the regulations. We then visited the manufacturing facility, along with staff from the GSI to take samples. Eventually, the manufacturer went through the whole recertification process with the NSAI and got back its certificate.
