1.The certification body shall conduct surveillance activities in respect of the entity in charge of maintenance to verify continued compliance with the requirements set out in Annex II. It shall conduct site visits at least once every 12 months. The choice regarding the nature of surveillance activities and sites to be visited shall aim at ensuring overall continuing compliance and shall be based on a geographical and functional balance. It shall take account of previous surveillance activities of the entity in charge of maintenance under surveillance.
2.Where the certification body finds that an entity in charge of maintenance no longer complies with the requirements on the basis of which it issued the ECM certification, it can take one of the following actions:
agree an improvement plan with the entity in charge of maintenance,
decide to limit the scope of the ECM certification,
suspend or revoke the certification, depending on the extent of non-compliance.
3.Where the entity in charge of maintenance does not follow the improvement plan or continues not to comply with the requirements set out in Annex II, the certification body shall decide to limit the scope of or revoke the ECM certification, depending on the extent of non-compliance.
4.In case of revocation of an ECM certification, the entity in charge of the national or European vehicle register shall ensure suspension of the registration of vehicles affected by the revocation, until a new entity in charge of maintenance is registered for the vehicles concerned.
5.Each entity in charge of maintenance shall submit an annual report of its activities to its certification body and make it available to the national safety authority and to the Agency upon request. The requirements for this report are set out in Annex V.
