Review Committee
An internal quality control body that objectively supervises the decision-making process carried out within FLOCERT.
It is therefore responsible for guaranteeing a consistent interpretation of the Standards and for ensuring that operations are carried out with due diligence.
As an internal body, its role is neither that of an external and/or official arbitration body nor a court-like institution.
