2. To observe at all times the basic rights of clients as consumers.

3. To render good service at all times and make fair charges in respect of services rendered and for merchandise supplied.

6. To display the price lists referred to in (5) above in the public area of our premises.

7. To give a written estimate of the Funeral Director's charges and disbursements to be paid on a client's behalf, together with written confirmation of the funeral arrangements in each and every case, as soon as is practicable before the day of the funeral.
