    1. demonstrated its independence and expertise in relation to the subject-matter of the code to the satisfaction of the competent supervisory authority;
    2. established procedures which allow it to assess the eligibility of controllers and processors concerned to apply the code, to monitor their compliance with its provisions and to periodically review its operation;
