# §789.4. Scope and content of assurances of compliance.


A question frequently asked is whether a single written assurance of compliance will suffice for purposes both of [section 12(a)](/cfr/29/12.md?p=a), relating to child labor, and [section 15(a)(1)](/cfr/29/15.md?p=a-1), relating to wage and hour standards. A single assurance would appear to be sufficient, provided it is specific enough to meet all the conditions of the two sections. Although it is possible that the courts might find assurances referring generally to compliance “with the requirements of the Act” adequate for all purposes, the safer course to pursue would be to phrase the assurance in terms of compliance with the specific sections of the Act whose violation would bar the goods from interstate or foreign commerce.
