All measuring instruments in a sample shall be individually examined and appropriate tests set out in the relevant harmonised standard(s) and/or normative document(s), and/or equivalent tests set out in other relevant technical specifications, shall be carried out in order to verify their conformity with the type described in the EU-type examination certificate and with the applicable requirements of this Directive, and to determine whether the lot is accepted or rejected.

6. Where for any quarterly or annual samples there are measurable concentration of 2,3,7,8-TCDD or measurable concentration of 2,3,7,8-TCDF, one 24-hour composite sample of the final effluent shall be collected monthly until no measurable concentration of 2,3,7,8-TCDD and no measurable concentration of 2,3,7,8-TCDF have been detected for the period set out in item 3 or 4 at which time that item applies.

These measures include limiting the use of any sample obtained by police or probation officers to the sole purpose of ensuring compliance with the condition; allowing the offender to receive the results of an analysis of their sample; ensuring full notice from a probation officer in writing to the offender of any requirement to provide a sample at regular intervals, including where and when the sample is to be provided; requiring all jurisdictions to establish specific rules to be followed in the taking, testing, handling, storing and destruction of samples; requiring that all samples and records of analysis be destroyed once the prohibition condition la ...[+++]pses, unless the analysis is to be used in a breach proceeding; and, finally, requiring that a sample demand can be made only when there are reasonable grounds to believe that a breach has occurred for probation orders and peace bonds.

Then the safeguards set out in the Criminal Code—that the sample is taken by a proper technician who has the authority to take it, that the ampoules are in sealed containers, that the proper evidentiary issues are maintained in terms of continuity of the sample and the right to independently test the sample—those are the kinds of things that could be used to ensure not only that there's an appropriate analysis but also that there's a safeguard for the accused.

Place a measured volume of the sample, neutralised if necessary, into a 250 ml separating funnel (2.2.11).

the development of the Indicator should fully respect the responsibility of Member States for the organisation of their education systems and should not impose undue administrative or financial burdens on the organisation and institutions concerned; the method for data-gathering should take account of previous work in the field at international, Union and Member State level, and be devised and implemented in a cost-effective manner; the European Indicator of Language Competence shall be put in place as soon as possible, in accordance with the following terms of reference: data should be gathered on competences in first and second foreign languages: via a common suite of tests administered to a representative sample of the target populatio ...[+++]n in each Member State; from a representative sample of pupils in education and training at the end of ISCED level 2; where a second foreign language is not taught before the end of ISCED 2, Member States may, in the first round of data-gathering, choose to gather data for the second foreign language from pupils at the level of ISCED 3; for those languages for which there exists a suitable representative sample of learners in a given Member State; test scores should be based on the scales of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages ; because respect for linguistic diversity is a core value of the European Union, the Indicator should be based upon data concerning the knowledge of all the official languages of the European Union taught as foreign languages in the Union; but for practical reasons it would be advisable, in the first round of data-gathering, for tests to be made available in those official languages of the European Union that are most widely taught in the Member States, to the extent that they provide a sufficiently large sample of testees ; Member States shall themselves determine which of those official languages are to be tested; the Indicator should assess competence in the four productive a ...
