Regulation 31(2)
1. It must be ensured that lifting attachments which do not meet the requirements of paragraph 2 of Schedule 2 have been removed or otherwise rendered incapable of being used for lifting the package.
2. For each Type B package and for each packaging containing fissile material, it must be ensured that all the requirements specified in the approval certificates and the relevant provisions of these Regulations are to be satisfied.
3. Each Type B package shall be held until equilibrium conditions have been approached closely enough to demonstrate compliance with the shipment requirements for temperature and pressure unless an exemption from these requirements has received unilateral approval.
4. For each Type B package, it shall be ensured by examination and/or appropriate tests that all closures, valves, and other openings of the containment system through which the radioactive contents might escape are properly closed and, where appropriate, sealed in the manner for which the demonstrations of compliance with the requirements of paragraph 8 of Schedule 12 were made. In the case of a package where containment is provided by radioactive material in special form, compliance may be demonstrated by possession of a valid special form radioactive material approval certificate issued in accordance with regulation 17.
