Will be interesting to see which operator bagged the most content.

Oooooh. I'll have to see if I can get a copy.

Will be interesting to see what it says as this has been a hobby horse of mine for years.

Not really sure why it's needed, but it's here now.

I’ve only seen the online browser snippet, but there seem to be two errors in the definitions (probably typos)

Well at least they define pig correctly, not P.I.G. like you see sometimes.... Interesting that they don't think pigs do inspection though....?? " for the purpose of cleaning, gauging, batching or product fluid displacement".

What did you find?

There is a BE EN ISO 22504 due to be published in early June so my company should have access at that point via their standards library portal thing which gets you access to online standards. So I'll have a good look then.

Don't like the use of the word "safe" in the closure definition. Too vague. just unnecessary in a description.
