    Health Charter

    Article 1 Learn more about this article...


    It is established an optional health charter defining installation and operating standards to prevent the occurrence and extension of salmonellaic infections, to which the owners of poultry herds of the Gallus gallus species can join in the flesh sector as well as in drugstores. The criteria for membership in the health charter are set out in the annex to this Order.
    Membership in the health charter requires a prior qualification of the establishment's installation and operation to the health charter, compliance with the provisions of the health charterarrested on 26 February 2008 and the conditions of origin of the eggs to be found or the herds introduced. Membership in the health charter authorizes the financial participation of the State in the costs of the elimination of animals and the destruction of eggs to be found during confirmed infection, under the conditions specified by this Order.

    Article 2 Learn more about this article...


    I. ― Herd owners may adhere to the health charter set out in Article 1 of this Order by individual agreement with the Prefect (Departmental Director of Veterinary Services).
    Any application for membership in the health charter must be submitted prior to the establishment of a herd to the territorially competent department of veterinary services, in order to allow the inspection of the establishment. This application shall be accompanied by a list of required parts provided by ministerial instruction and a written undertaking by the contractor to comply with the installation and operation standards set out in the annex to this Order.
    The convention must be covered by the health veterinarian and the poultry herd holder before the prefect is signed.
    In the event of non-compliance with the provisions of this Order, the Convention may be suspended or terminated.
    II. ∙ In the event of minor non-compliance with the provisions of this Order, the agreement may be suspended in the course of a herd's herding on an interim basis. These non-compliances, which are not likely to increase the risk of Salmonella infection, are specified by departmental instruction. The benefits of the agreement may be granted again, including for the current herd, after correction of non-compliances.
    III. - In the event of non-compliance with the provisions of this Order, the Convention may be terminated at any time. Termination results in the withdrawal of the qualification of the establishment and prohibits the award of a new convention for the herd under herding, if any.
    In the event of a herd infection, the related epidemiological unit conventions are terminated without prejudice to the award of the planned allowances.
    IV. ∙ In the event of reoccurence of infection, over a two-year period, in the same epidemiological unit and by the same serotype referred to in the control program, the convention is terminated for a period of probatory deficiency at least equal to a production cycle and not less than one year, during which the qualification is suspended. During the probationary period, the operator provides evidence of the implementation of measures to prevent infection and preserve the health status of the buffer herd(s).
    In the event of residual contamination against a serotype referred to in the control plan, detected prior to the establishment of a new herd or a second deck, the agreement is terminated for the herd, if the herd is put in place before the decontamination of the breeding building whose efficacy is validated.
    V. ― After termination of a convention, the owner may make a new application for membership. A new agreement may be granted after a prior inspection of the establishment's qualification by veterinary services and to the operator's charge of favourable complementary bacteriological controls. Samplings are those described in Appendix III of the Order of February 26, 2008 on the Control of Salmonella Infections in the Herds of the Gallus gallus species in the aforementioned flesh stream.

  • Annex



    A N N E X E A
    INSTALLATION AND FUNCTIONING STANDARDS
    FOR THE SANITARIAN CHARTER


    These provisions apply without prejudice to other legislative or regulatory texts, in particular those relating to facilities classified for environmental protection, which contribute to the control of Salmonella risk, including the management of risks associated with animal density and effluent and waste management. It is therefore in principle that the establishments can only adhere to the health charter if they are regularly authorized or declared under the facilities classified for the protection of the environment for the personnel set up, and if they do not contravene their obligations under the protection of the environment and animal protection.


    Chapter I
    Establishments hosting breeders
    of the Gallus gallus species of the flesh sector


    An establishment is defined as the breeding area of the Gallus gallus species, on the same site, possibly comprising several contiguous or non-contiguous buildings.


    Objectives


    The facility must be designed and protected to minimize the introduction of salmonella and pathogens.
    The design and development of the facility and its surroundings shall allow effective cleaning and disinfection operations, followed by a sanitary vacuum sufficient to interrupt a possible cycle of contamination.


    1. Establishment protection


    It must be designed to prevent the introduction of pathogens into the facility. In particular, the following points should be respected:
    - access to the facility must be delimited so as to prohibit the penetration of foreign persons, other animals, and vehicles intended for the removal of corpses;
    ― at the entrance of each building and, where applicable, from the establishment, a three-zone sas, preferably equipped with showers, must be made available to staff and the breeder, who must have a specific working outfit (combination, boots, hairdress). This sas must respect the principle of separating the clean sector and the dirty sector and must include a non-manual handwash, with hot water, soap, disposable hand wipers and two trash bins. It must be maintained in good maintenance and cleanliness;
    ― the surroundings of each building must be maintained in satisfactory condition;
    - within the livestock area, the equipment used to serve each building must be specific to the area;
    ― the freezing of dead bodies pending removal is recommended, and a concrete and enclosed location must be installed at the limit of the breeding area to store them in waterproof containers before removal by the watercolour;
    ― the food supply of herds must be designed so as to avoid as much as possible the movement of foreign vehicles in the livestock area and parking on access roads, especially in front of the entrance sas. When the operations for the carriage of the compound feed intended for a breeding herd are carried out by the herd's owner, the herd sets up written procedures for monitoring and control of the contamination of the food transport vehicles; where the carriage is entrusted to a service provider, it ensures by contract the establishment of equivalent procedures by the service provider.


    2. Aménagement


    All measures must be taken to minimize access to wild birds, rodents and insects.
    As far as possible, the equipment will be selected to facilitate cleaning and disinfection operations. In particular, ventilation, watering, feeding, egg collection and removal circuits must be, to the extent possible, easily dismountable or accessible in order to allow effective cleaning and disinfection. Air turbulence shall be reduced to a minimum during the drying of the cracks, if practised in the volume of life of the poultry, or close to the air inputs of the farm building.
    The soils of the buildings must be waterproof, hard, imputrescible and waterproof. This provision applies no later than December 31, 2010 for all livestock facilities that have hosted breeding herds in the 2006 or 2007 years that adhere to the health charter. It applies without delay for all new applications for membership in the health charter "producers in preponte and deck" concerning an establishment not yet qualified for reproduction and not meeting the above conditions, as well as for the repeuplement of qualified buildings sheltered a herd infected by Salmonella Enteritidis, or Salmonella Hadar, or Salmonella Infantis, or Salmonella Typmonhimurium, or
    The internal walls of the buildings must be smooth and allow effective cleaning and disinfection.


    3. Conduct of livestock


    (a) Animals:
    Breeders are required to introduce in their buildings only birds or seed from establishments adhering to the health charter.
    As a derogatory, herds of breeders of the Gallus gallus species imported from a third country or exchanged from another Member State may benefit from the health charter, subject to the following conditions:
    - the State of origin has a salmonella control program approved by the European Commission for the current year;
    - the lots introduced are isolated from the other herds adhering to the health charter up to five weeks, unless authorized by the departmental director of veterinary services;
    ― the establishment must be notified to the departmental director of veterinary services of the place of accommodation no later than two days prior to it;
    the herd is introduced at the age of one day;
    ― the herd(s) that produce the eggs to be found at the origin of the introduced poultry are indemnified from infection by the five Salmonella serotypes covered by the control program;
    ―the operator wishing to join the health charter has obtained written guarantees of conformity of the development and operation of the establishment hosting the original herd(s) of the chicks of one day introduced and the establishment of acupon where they have broken the hygienic standards required under the health charter. It ensures that there is no vaccination of the herds of grandparents or elites of origin, which could reduce the sensitivity of bacteriological tests.
    In this derogatory context, the following specific measures apply to herds imported from a third country:
    ― Animals are accompanied by an official supplementary certificate from the competent authority of the State in which the original breeders are maintained and the chicks have hatched, attesting the following requirements:
    1. Lack of vaccination against Salmonella from original breeders;
    2. Compliance with the development and operation of the facility hosting the original herd(s) of chicks introduced to the hygienic standards of the health charter or its equivalence, which may be replaced by compliance with the provisions described in Annex 3.4.1 of the OIE Terrestrial Animal Health Code;
    ― the above-described supplemental attestation may be signed by the approved veterinarian in charge of the establishment of origin, unless expressly refused by the administration;
    - membership in the health charter is granted on the first day of the seventh week following the introduction, unless otherwise notified by the departmental director of veterinary services, provided that the analyses for the search for salmonellas carried out up to the age of five weeks included and any research of inhibitors requested by veterinary services are negative;
    ―if the introduced lot is placed in an epidemiological unit where other poultry is housed, the whole flock takes the status of the imported herd;
    ―the establishment must be made known to the departmental director of veterinary services at the place of accommodation no later than eight days before the place of accommodation.
    Depending on a risk analysis conducted by the departmental director of veterinary services or on the instruction of the minister responsible for agriculture, additional screening samples and inhibitor research may be carried out or a particular prohibited source, for the accession of herds and their exits to the health charter.
    Animals in the same building must have the same age or not more than fifteen days of difference between the youngest and the oldest. The same must be true, to the extent possible, for the entire establishment. It is tolerated an exemption from this rule in the case of a possible replacement of males. Upon written request of the owner and after agreement of the departmental director of veterinary services, it may be derogated for the pedigree and grandparental floors from the fifteen-day period between two sets in place in the same building, which may be extended to eight weeks if the control measures are satisfactory: in particular, the sanitary voids must be respected, as well as the sampling schedules calculated from the date of place in place
    If several herds are the same epidemiological unit, the same age deviation conditions apply to the health charter of each of them.
    In the event of successive or different sewings, each delivery is subject to bacteriological control at the introduction, identical to that provided by the fight program at the age of one day.
    The breeder must by means of his choice be able to demonstrate the origin of the animals and ensure the identification of the lot.
    If the breeder is required to use a foreign animal intervention team for specific zootechnical or health operations, it must comply with the health protection rules defined for the establishment. Operations shall be carried out in the presence of the farmer or technician of the establishment and shall be recorded on the farm register.
    In the event of abnormal incidents, morbidity or mortality, the breeder undertakes to prevent the health veterinarian. The latter, depending on the context, requests laboratory reviews and informs the departmental veterinary services director of the department concerned, as soon as possible, of the results and initial measures taken.
    A building transfer for a second bridge is permitted only if it is carried out in accordance with a prior procedure based on a risk analysis that has been approved by veterinary services.
    (b) Eggs:
    Covered eggs must be disinfected on site and stored quickly after deck in a special location. Eggs are transported to the neck by a vehicle and clean and disinfected equipment. The vehicle is reserved for this purpose.
    (c) Combating contaminant vectors:
    The breeder must rationally use the facilities described above: the buildings and their surroundings must be regularly deratized and disinsected.
    A recording of these different operations must be performed.
    Potential salmonella material must be cleaned and disinfected before being introduced or used.
    Pallets must be stored in an isolated area of the breeding area and disinfected upon arrival in the farm.
    (d) Drinking water:
    The conformity of drinking water with the following bacteriological criteria must be controlled at least semi-annually in the event of a private network supply, and at least annually in the case of public network water:
    Enterocococcus: absence in 100 ml.
    E. coli: absence in 100 ml.
    Salmonella: absence in 5 litres.
    Enterocoques and E. coli are searched according to the methods described in NF EN ISO 7899-2 (T90-416) and NF ISO 9308-1 (T90-414).
    The search for salmonella is only required for floor reproduction and is performed according to the method described in ISO 6340.
    In case of unfavourable results, a biocide treatment whose effectiveness is verified is applied. The Departmental Director of Veterinary Services prohibits the use of drilling water in the event of failure of this treatment, if he considers that it may be at the origin of this adverse result.
    (e) Aliment:
    The possibility of contaminating animals by food must be taken into account and the measures taken to avoid it must be the subject of written procedures. For breeding farms, samples of compound foods are taken from each delivery and kept for four months under satisfactory conditions for Salmonella contamination.
    (f) Waste and effluent:
    Waste management and livestock effluent comply with the requirements of the environmental code, the public health code and the texts taken for their application. The removals and spreads of livestock effluent are managed so as not to constitute a risk of contamination of neighbouring herds by Salmonella.
    (g) Transport:
    The owners of herds of reproduction put in place written procedures for monitoring and controlling the contamination of vehicles for the transport of eggs and poultry. These procedures are subject to the appreciation of the departmental director of veterinary services. Operators record the controls and inform the veterinary services of the non-compliances identified and the corrective measures implemented, at a frequency determined based on the production floor and the risk analysis conducted on the organization of transport in the accouvage company. Remedial measures include enhanced controls of herds that have flowed into contaminated vehicles, or their accommodation buildings according to the type of control carried out. If a particular risk factor is identified by the operator in a transport company, the operator shall promptly inform the company and the departmental director of veterinary services.
    (h) Cleaning and disinfection:
    After the reproductive departure, cleaning, disinfection and sanitary vacuum operations are mandatory. Manure must be removed from the building before cleaning and disinfection. Tractors and other manure handling equipment must be decontaminated after these operations. Storage, spreading of animal dejections and cleaning water shall not be a source of environmental contamination. Cleaning water must be evacuated either in a pit or to a sewage network.
    Cleaning and disinfection of livestock premises and their annexes and equipment are carried out according to a written protocol, using an authorized disinfectant. This protocol should also take into account the control of pests, including rodents, insects and unwanted mites, as well as the decontamination of the surroundings.
    The establishment in a building of a batch of poultry after a band having undergone contamination with respect to a serotype covered by the control plan and before the receipt of satisfactory results from the official control of the cleaning site and disinfection prohibits the allocation of the health charter for the new herd.


    4. Breeding register


    The livestock register as provided by theArticle L. 234-1 of the Rural Code is supplemented by the following information:
    ― certificates of membership in the health charter of the establishment of origin of animals and results of additional analyses, if any, as set out in paragraph 3 a of this chapter;
    cleaning, disinfection, sanitary vacuum (protocol, date of completion and results of controls);
    ― prophylaxis programs (infectious and parasitic diseases) with specific dates of vaccinations since the age of one day and treatments;
    - the deposit of raticide or souricide baits;
    - application of insecticides and acaricides;
    ― performances, bridge curves, fertility and enclosability;
    ― dates of shipment of samples and samples for analysis and analysis results;
    - therapeutic treatments and results obtained;
    ― ad hoc interventions of temporary staff teams (name and contact information of the company, date and purpose of the intervention).
    This information must be made available to the health veterinarian and the departmental director of veterinary services or his representative during their visits. The shelf life of the farm register is minimal.


    5. Hygiene rules


    The hygiene rules adopted, specific to livestock, are communicated to the departmental director of veterinary services and are the subject of a written document annexed to the livestock register. They are in accordance with the guide to good practices in livestock hygiene, when such a guide is validated for the sector concerned.


    Chapter II
    Woundings
    Objectives


    Insulation and seam compartmentation to limit the introduction, persistence, multiplication and diffusion of contaminants inside the seam as well as to livestock suppliers and customers.
    Traceability of products.
    Application of a continuous control to achieve the health quality of products and to detect infections as quickly as possible, with the aim of implementing corrective actions.


    1. Sewing implant


    The installation of the seam must be designed to limit air contamination. In all cases, there must be physical and functional separation, effective and relevant, between sewing and livestock.
    The surroundings must be properly maintained. A bare area in the immediate vicinity of the seam must be maintained.


    2. Patch design


    The seam shall be divided into functional areas between which circulation must respect the principle of forward walking for people, eggs, equipment and waste.
    Its design and operation must avoid cross-contamination between the different sectors of the neck and between lots of different origins.
    The ventilation of the different areas must provide an airflow always circulating clean areas to dirty areas. The air extracted from the hatches must be evacuated outside the neck via an independent and accessible circuit. Downs should be taken.
    The functional areas are:
    reception;
    - disinfection of eggs;
    - preparation of eggs;
    ― egg storage;
    incubation;
    mirage and transfer;
    ― elosion;
    - preparation and conditioning of chicks;
    ― reception of the outside chicks for the seams carrying out trade or exchanges between seams (separate from the storage and shipping rooms of the chicks produced by the seam);
    – storage of chicks;
    - shipment of chicks;
    - washing and disinfection of equipment;
    storage of single-use equipment;
    - the equipment return circuit.
    The volume and layout of each area are adapted to the activity of the seam, especially the storage and cleaning areas.
    Soils, ceilings and walls shall be covered with materials for cleaning and disinfection; The same applies to incubation and enclosion equipment. In the case of new constructions, the fittings of walls and floors and walls are made with rounded corners.
    The installation of dust filters at air intakes is recommended.
    Disposal and storage of sewing waste should not be a source of pollution or contamination.
    Wastewater drainage pipes must be of a slope and a diameter sufficient to allow rapid removal of waste water and a good ventilation to avoid anaerobic fermentation. They must be equipped with siphons to prevent rodents and " baskets" from coming back to waste.
    At the entrance of the seam, the entrance sas represents a health barrier designed to protect the seam against the human risk factor. It involves a physical separation between the outer area and the inner area. It shall be equipped:
    - a dressing room for civil clothing;
    – a non-manual washbasin with hot water, bactericidal soap, disposable wipers, trash on each side, and possibly showers;
    - a dressing room for workwear.
    It must be kept in perfect condition of cleanliness and maintenance.
    In order to respect the principle of walking forward, and to avoid the unsecured return of the down area to the shell area:
    either a sail is fitted to the transfer area, which plays a buffer between the two zones. In this sas a locker room and a non-manual control sink shall be installed. The showers are highly recommended in the event of a downward passage to the clean area;
    - either the passage from one area to another is done by borrowing the input sas of the seam, which must be equipped, secured and used accordingly.
    Entrance of the eggs and the outlet of the chicks must be carried out using devices to avoid access to service by foreign people.
    The water used in the seam and taken at the end of the circuit must meet the following bacteriological criteria:
    E. coli: absence in 100 ml.
    ASR: absence in 100 ml.
    Predicted pathogens: absence in 100 ml.
    Salmonella: absence in 5 litres.
    The E. coli are sought by the method described in the NF ISO 9308-1 (T90-414), the ASR spores are sought by the method described in the NF EN 26461-2 (T90-417), the presumed pathogenic staphylococcus are sought by the method described in the XP T 90-412 standard, and the salmonella are sought by the method described in the ISO 63 standard.
    In case of unfavourable results, a biocide treatment whose effectiveness is verified is applied. The departmental director of veterinary services may prohibit the use of drilling water in the event of failure of this treatment.


    3. Operation of the seam


    (a) Personnel:
    The breeding staff must not have access to the sewing.
    The sewing staff must use the sails to change clothes and wear specific outfits, preferably different colors for the shell area and the down area.
    All visitors must comply with staff requirements.
    (b) Covered eggs:
    b-1) Covered eggs are disinfected between their arrival at the neck and incubation; The dirty eggs are not incubated.
    The Gallus Gallus gallus animal-covered eggs are treated completely separate from those of potential other treated species, especially in dedicated hatching rooms for an outbreak.
    The eggs must come from herds adhering to the health charter. The transfer of eggs to be found can therefore be carried out only between multiplication societies and acclaim whose herds adhere to the health charter.
    b-2) By derogation from this principle, sewings adhering to the health charter may receive eggs to cover non-adherent establishments, located in France or in another State. The following conditions shall then be met, including for eggs with exemptions under item b-4:
    ― the cunning officer ensures before the introduction that the eggs come from unharmed herds of Salmonella Enteritidis, Hadar, Infantis, Typhimurium and Virchow;
    ― the information relating to these introductions is recorded on the sewing register and brought to the attention of the departmental director of veterinary services at least 48 hours prior to these. The day of hatching is communicated to the departmental directorate of veterinary services as soon as the machine is machined. The organization and the country of origin are clearly listed on the sewing registers; the eggs are set in a separate hatch reserved for batches not derived from herds of multiplication adhering to the health charter;
    - the hatch is isolated;
    ― the hatcher lockers, a hatch and the paper deposited on the sorting carousel are systematically subjected, each, to a bacteriological analysis aimed at the five Salmonella serotypes concerned with the plan of struggle. The results must be negative;
    ― a search for inhibitors can be carried out in a batch of 10 eggs to be found or 10 chicks a day, according to a technique recommended by the national reference laboratory. The results must be negative;
    ― serology of salmonella may be performed upon request by the departmental director of veterinary services.
    Depending on a risk analysis conducted by the departmental director of veterinary services or on the instruction of the minister responsible for agriculture, additional screening samples may be carried out or a particular prohibited source, for the maintenance of the seam membership or herds derived from the health charter.
    b-3) The herds derived from the lid eggs referred to in sub-item (b-2) of this annex shall not be eligible for the health charter, except as provided in sub-item (b-4) of the same annex.
    b-4) It may be derogated from point b-3 of this annex for herds derived from eggs to be found on the imported or exchanged floor, which may adhere to the health charter subject to the following conditions, in addition to those referred to in point b-2:
    - eggs come from states whose mastery program is approved by the European Commission;
    - the chicks originated are isolated from other herds adhering to the health charter unless authorized by the departmental director of veterinary services;
    ― the cunning officer ensures that the eggs to be found come from herds of reproduction respecting the conditions imposed on herds adhering to the health charter, in particular:
    1. immunization requirements in accordance with the provisions of the February 26, 2008 Order to Combat Salmonella Infections in the Herds of the Gallus gallus species in the flesh sector;
    2. conformity of the development and operation of the breeding establishment of the herd(s) producers of the coated eggs introduced with the hygienic standards for the development and operation of the health charter or its equivalent.
    In this derogatory context, specific measures apply to eggs imported from a third country:
    ― the eggs to be found are accompanied by a supplementary official certificate attesting to the conformity of the development and operation of the breeding establishment of the herd(s) producers of the eggs to be found introduced with the hygienic standards for the development and operation of the health charter, and an identical status vis-à-vis the vaccination that imposed by thearrested on 26 February 2008 ;
    - this certificate may be signed by the approved veterinarian in charge of the establishment of origin, unless expressly refused by the departmental director of veterinary services;
    ― the equivalence to the health charter contained in the supplementary certificate may be replaced by compliance with the provisions described in Annex 3.4.1 of the OIE Terrestrial Animal Health Code;
    ―if the chicks of one day come into an epidemiological unit where other poultry is housed, the whole herd takes the status of the imported herd;
    ―the establishment must be made known to the departmental director of veterinary services of the place of accommodation no later than eight days before it;
    ― membership in the health charter is granted to chicks from the first day of the seventh week following the establishment, unless otherwise notified by the departmental director of veterinary services, as long as the salmonella research analyses conducted up to the age of five weeks included and the possible research of inhibitors requested by veterinary services are negative.
    (c) Hygiene:
    Incubators must be disinfected regularly.
    The hatches and hatches must be washed and disinfected after each outbreak. Air and water circuits are regularly maintained.
    Cardboard packagings should not be reused. As well as locker funds and delivery boxes, they must be stored away from any contamination. Delivery boxes must not be disinfected before use. Packagings made of material for cleaning and disinfection may be reused subject to these operations.
    The room and sorting, sexing and shipping equipment must be washed and disinfected after each shipment of chicks.
    All other sewing rooms must be cleaned and disinfected according to a pre-established health control plan.
    Vehicles for the transport of eggs and chicks must be washed and disinfected after each use.
    (d) Traceability:
    The downstream or upstream traceability information is forwarded to the Departmental Director of Veterinary Services at the time of request by the facility for a specified lot or period. The seam must be organized to be able to carry out this transmission within a maximum of twelve hours for the periods elapsed, and in an electronically exploitable form. Failure to comply with this requirement or inaccuracies or omissions is such that the health charter granted to the sewer is immediately suspended.


    4. Sewing register


    A sewing register must be kept regularly and kept for at least three years. Without prejudice to compliance with the provisions relating to the livestock register, it must be supplemented by the following:
    - results of outbreaks;
    ― possible incubation or enclosion anomalies.
    ― laboratory tests performed and results obtained.
    This register is regularly targeted by the health veterinarian responsible for the monitoring of the sewing and by the departmental director of veterinary services or his representative during their visits.


    5. Hygiene monitoring


    Good hygienic and sanitary practices implemented in the neck must be regularly checked by visual and bacteriological controls as described below, according to a written procedure submitted to the departmental director of veterinary services. The results of these controls must be recorded in a register that must be regularly addressed by the veterinarian responsible for the monitoring of the conquest and by the departmental director of veterinary services or his representative during their visits.
    (a) Egg reception room, egg storage room, incubation:
    Visual cleanliness check once a week and bacteriological surface control (Pseudomonas, Aspergillus, Salmonella) once a month.
    After cleaning and disinfection operations, once a month, bacteriological control of surfaces (enterococcals or other germs indicators of efficacy validated in the guide to good practices of the profession).
    (b) Transfer area, locks, sorting, storage and shipping area:
    Visual cleanliness check once a week and bacteriological control of surfaces once a day (Pseudomonas, Aspergillus, Salmonella).
    After cleaning and disinfection operations, at least 15 times a day, bacteriological control of surfaces (enterococs or other germs indicators of effectiveness validated in the guide to good practices of the profession).
    Any unfavourable outcome must result in pre-established corrective actions in a written procedure.
