The Measurement and Product Safety Service Newsletter For
Accredited Persons (APs)
The publication measureUP
has been launched to improve communication and give APs the
opportunity to interact with the Ministry over issues they feel
appropriate.
The Ministry intends to use this publication
to keep APs and stakeholders informed of the latest issues within
Legal Metrology as well as providing clarification and information
on more technical matters.

introduction of a three year renewal period for letters of

measureUP - March 2006 newsletter
There have been many changes to the
Measurement and Product Safety Service (MAPSS) and legal metrology
in recent times. Changes, such as those to the accreditation scheme
since the commencement of the Weights and Measures Amendment Act
2005, makes the need for communication between the Ministry,
Accredited Persons (APs) and stakeholders important.
