DIY Compliance Check

This toolkit contains two simple DIY compliance checks. Both require you to answer a number of questions. Once you have answered the questions a report will be generated based on your responses. This report can then be printed.

The compliance checks will help you assess your responsibilities under the directives and summarise actions you should consider to help you comply.
