Due to prevailing market dynamics and the recent Christmas period production shutdowns at some certified firms some due ACRS assessments remain to be completed.

ACRS will be undertaking these outstanding site assessments during January and February 2017 to bring the affected certified firms up to date with their requirements under the ACRS scheme.

The status of these certificate holders remains “Pending” whilst these outstanding ACRS assessments are being undertaken.

Please note, during January and February, sites noted as “Pending” on the ACRS website have not been suspended from the ACRS scheme.

Pending status will apply only to 28 February 2017, after which date any site not in compliance with ACRS scheme requirements will be suspended until compliance with scheme requirements is confirmed
