In the context of f.ex. organic products and the fair trade movement I
have come across the use of the expressions certification,
verification, auditing and inspection.  Also used as certified,
verified, audited, inspected....
It is not clear to me what the differences are.  
Can you provide some clarification ?  There might not be any clear-cut
explanations but some hints would do.

Dear alsinger-ga,

I am a little confused by your reference to f.ex. Could you explain a little more?
I have found a document titled ?Monitoring and verification
terminology guide for the garment and sportswear industries?, and this
seems to be the type of document you are seeking but I am little
confused by your particular product or industry.

Did any of the places that use these terms refer to a law, regulation,
international agreement  - whatever?  The terms may be defined there.
If you can post a clarification naming such a document, maybe it can be found.
