33B: Certificates of appointment

You could also call this:

"What you get when you're appointed as a product safety officer"

Illustration for Fair Trading Act 1986

You get a certificate if you are a product safety officer or a trainee. This certificate shows you were appointed under section 33A. The chief executive decides what the certificate looks like. You will see your full name on the certificate. It will say you were appointed under section 33A of the Fair Trading Act. The certificate will also talk about the powers you have under sections 33C and 33D. The certificate may say you have powers under the Search and Surveillance Act 2012. This depends on what powers you have as a product safety officer.
