Source policy
Sources
How Turco & Co prioritises, cites and limits external sources in public educational content.
Source hierarchy
Primary law, regulator and scheme-owner material is preferred for compliance statements. Standards bodies, inspection methods and established industry publications may provide technical or market context.
- Official legislation and regulator publications
- Certification-scheme and standards-owner documents
- Recognised laboratory, inspection and assay methods
- Dated industry publications for market context
Citation practice
Insight articles should expose their source list when one is available. A citation confirms the origin of a statement, not Turco & Co’s endorsement of every claim in the source.
Known limitations
A source can become outdated or may apply only to a defined jurisdiction, date or product category. Readers should check the current primary text before using it in a live file.
