We note that no drip plugs that have been fitted to 'O' series have yet been tested, although we believe we have a scheme for an identical layout to that which Luvax use.

We think we should insist on 10% of these being inspected, and the longer the delay in doing so the more work will have to be done later on, as it is, 50 chassis have been erected without inspection of this part.
