These sources should include: 

• Current legislation and government regulatory documents • Professional standards and codes of practice and standards issued by regulatory authorities • Regulatory information and business management manuals issued by industry associations When writing the report, take each area of Blue Healer's operations and determine what laws and licensing obligations apply to it.
