Security checks during trip check
I know this is not a tech question but more of a regulatory question but any info about it would be appreciated.
My company recently send us a memo telling us that during a trip check by the pilot all the hatches that can be reached from ground has to be opened and checked inside for foreign material and this is a safety requirement which is picked up during a safa check. The panels included for the type that I am flying are engine oil refill panel, engine IDG refill panel, potable water access panel and toilet panel.
I see this quite a pointless regulation. For the reasons below
1. I will do the trip check and I will go up into the flight deck to continue with the paperwork. How can I guarantee that no one opens those panels after my check
2. Most of the time cargo panels are open during the trip check how can I be sure that none of the baggage handlers are not putting something illegal in the cargo compartments.
3. If during the trip check the loading of cargo and the luggages are already finished do I have to open the cargo panels?
4. Lets say I open the cargo panels then do I have to check every luggage if there's something that can be harmful? If not what am I looking for ?
I am already corresponding with the security department of my company about this but if anyone can give me more information about this subject I would be grateful.
