Suspensions, Withdrawals and Reductions

Organisations with Suspended, Withdrawn and Reduced Scopes of Accreditation 

The policy of the NAB-MALTA in relation to the suspending, reducing or withdrawing of accreditation shall involve a range of measures which are designed to protect the integrity of the accreditation system and to ensure that the CAB respects the requirements of accreditation.
