Assurance Points Allocation.
An Assurer can allocate
a number of Assurance Points to the Member according to the Assurer's
experience (Experience Point system, see below). The allocation of
the maximum means that the Assurer is 100% confident in the
-information presented:
Detail on form, system, -documents, person in accordance;
-Sufficient quality -identity documents have been checked;
-Assurer's familiarity -with identity documents;
-The Assurance Statement is confirmed.

+Detail on form, system, documents, + person in accordance; +
+Sufficient quality identity + documents have been checked; +
+Assurer's familiarity with + identity documents; +
+The Assurance Statement is confirmed. +
+Any lesser confidence should result in less Assurance Points for a Name. If the Assurer has no confidence in the information presented, -then zero Assurance Points may be allocated by -the -Assurer. For example, this may happen if the identity -documents +then zero Assurance Points may be allocated by the +Assurer. For example, this may happen if the identity documents are totally unfamiliar to the Assurer. The number of Assurance Points -from zero to maximum is -guided by the Assurance -Handbook and the judgement of the Assurer.
-Multiple Names should be allocated separately in a single

A (new) Member who is not an Assurer may award an Assurer in a reciprocal process a maximum of 2 Assurance Points, according to his judgement. The Assurer should strive to have the Member allocate according to the Member's judgement, and stay on the cautious side a maximum of Assurance Points per Name; a (new) Member new to the -assurance process should allocate zero Assurance -Points -until they get some confidence in what is happening.

No Assurance process can give more than 50 Assurance
