Regulation 6 Testing by approved body
A manufacturer may make an application in writing to an approved body requesting the approved body to carry out on payment of the prescribed fee such of the EEC tests as the applicant may specify, accompanied by an information document in the form set out in Schedule 2.
Where the approved body is satisfied on application made to it under paragraph (1) above and after carrying out the EEC tests in respect of which the application was made that the results of any of those tests do not satisfy the requirements of Annex I of the Special Directive in respect of those tests it shall so inform the applicant in writing stating its reasons and also inform him of his right to apply for a review of the decision under regulation 9.
The prescribed fee payable under paragraph (1) above shall be equal to the sum of:—
the costs of the approved body of and in connection with the functions carried out or to be carried out by it under these Regulations (“the relevant service”); and
an amount on account of profit which is reasonable in the circumstances having regard to—
the character and the extent of the work done or to be done by the approved body in providing the relevant service, and
the commercial rate normally charged on account of profit for that work or similar work.
