A regional council has to choose people for two important jobs: certifiers and auditors. They must pick at least one person for each job.
When the regional council chooses these people, they need to make sure the people meet certain rules. These rules are written in special documents called regulations.
The council can only give someone one of these jobs if they are sure the person follows all the rules in the regulations.
