Frequently asked questions
Does Leaven Consult approve products or premises?
No. Regulatory approvals and enforcement decisions are made by the responsible authority.
Can you help after an inspection finding?
Yes. We can help analyse the finding, establish corrective action and organise the required evidence.
Is this the same as ISO certification?
No. Regulatory compliance and voluntary ISO certification are distinct, although many controls can support both.
