"We also conduct due diligence on our suppliers, through questionnaires, site visits and audits – to help us to identify any incidents of modern slavery or related exploitation."

"Prior to becoming an approved supplier for R.M.Williams, suppliers are required to either:

• Undertake an audit from a third party appointed by R.M.Williams;

• Provide a recent audit report (for example, undertaken for another customer) that is equivalent in scope to our assessment.

The audit report, SAQ results, and the annual risk mapping exercise, inform our risk assessment and ultimately influence our decision to engage a vendor. The SAQ outcomes and audit report allow us to identify opportunities for improvement in current business practices and guide ongoing supplier risk management."

"The Procurement and Compliance Team also conduct regular site inspections for major suppliers to monitor their compliance with the Code and Agreement."

No evidence of audits (self-reporting) therefore, I have unchecked it.
