What is required for stock that is not in the QSL regarding inspection or testing?

The requirement for stock that is not in the Qualified Shelf Life (QSL) is that it may be locally inspected or tested. This option recognizes that although the stock may not have an established shelf life, it can still undergo inspection or testing to determine its usability. Local inspection allows for an assessment of the item’s condition, quality, or compliance with standards without the need for discarding it immediately.

This approach is practical, as it provides an opportunity to evaluate potentially useful items rather than prematurely deeming them unusable. Inspecting or testing the stock can provide valuable information on its safety and effectiveness, informing decisions on whether it can be retained for use or should be discarded.

Other options suggest definitive, immediate actions or restrictions that do not take into account the potential of the stock for further evaluation.
