2.1 Verification Plan

2.1.1 In accordance with an agreed Submarine Assurance Plan, the verification activities to be carried out by LR may be carried out over the full submarine lifecycle or limited to specific lifecycle phases as defined.

2.1.2 It is important that a consistent and rigorous approach to verification is applied across the submarine lifecycle and that verification activities carried out during the in-service and maintenance phases of the submarine lifecycle are commensurate with those applied during design and construction.

2.2 Verification activities

2.2.1 The level of rigor in verification is to be commensurate with the safety criticality of the systems, equipment and components categorised in accordance with the requirements of the Submarine Safety Assurance System.

2.2.2 Verification activities carried out independently by LR may include independent analysis, design review, audit, survey, inspection and testing as appropriate for the submarine lifecycle phase and requirements to be verified.
