Summary of review and consultation process

 

The RMITO Advisory Group, made up of industry representatives involved in the retail meat trade, met in December 2004 to review unit standards 16103-16110.  Draft changes were sent out to the members of the Advisory Group on two occasions for comment and their views were taken into account during the review process.
