Marginal note:Rounding
1 For the purpose of determining the characteristics of a grain, any value that is calculated in relation to a criterion set out in this schedule shall be:
(a) if the criterion is expressed as a whole number, rounded to the nearest whole number or, if the value is equidistant between two whole numbers, rounded up to the nearest whole number;
(b) if the criterion is expressed as a decimal in tenths of a whole number, rounded to the nearest tenth of a whole number, or if the value is equidistant between two consecutive tenths, rounded up to the nearest tenth of a whole number; and
(c) if the criterion is expressed as a decimal in hundredths of a whole number, rounded to the nearest hundredth of a whole number, or if the value is equidistant between two consecutive hundredths, rounded up to the nearest hundredth of a whole number.
