David,
Would I be correct in paraphrasing your question as follows:
1) A customer of yours asks you for advice on supplying some product to carry
out some function or other
2) You know of products that can perform the function, but you also know that
these products do not comply with the legal requirements of the country where
the are to be used
3) Despite knowing that these products do not meet the required legislative
requirements, you nevertheless recommend the use of these products, and charge
a fee for this recommendation.
Of course, my restating of your problem has emphasised the negative side of
your question (on purpose).
The law varies from one country to another and in any case I do not think that
this forum is populated with legal professionals. However, it does seem to me
that the above way of doing business is universally morally reprehensible.
In the UK there are different legal requirements that apply depending on
whether your customer is a private individual or a commercial company. I
presume that your clients wil be companies and not individuals?
Regards,
Richard Hughes
