272N: Registration of modular component manufacturer certification body
or “The boss can allow companies to check and approve modular building parts if they meet certain rules.”

You could also call this:

“The government checks companies that approve building parts every few years to make sure they're doing a good job.”

The chief executive must check on a registered MCMCB at least once every 3 years. When they do this check, they want to find out two things:

Firstly, they want to see if the MCMCB still meets the rules for being registered. You can find these rules in section 272N.

Secondly, they want to see if there are any reasons why the MCMCB’s registration should be stopped for a while or taken away completely. You can find out more about this in section 272P.

This check is called an audit, and it’s done to make sure the MCMCB is still doing everything right.
