BREED SOCIETY LISTS

Registered Breed Societies must produce a list of Judges each year, which must be submitted to the Kennel Club as part of the Society's Annual Returns. The purpose of Breed Society Lists is to indicate to interested parties those persons a Breed Society would support at differing levels of judging. Membership of the Society must not be a prerequisite for inclusion on the lists.

Judges lists should be divided into three parts namely A1, A2, and B and must indicate the date on which the lists will expire. On expiry a new list must be compiled.

A1 List - must indicate all persons whom the Society would support and who have previously been approved by the Kennel Club to award Challenge Certificates in the breed.

(It should be noted that this list does not apply to breed societies where the breed does not currently have Challenge Certificates.)

A2 List - must indicate all persons the Society would support to award Challenge Certificates but, who as yet, have not been approved by the Kennel Club.

B List - must indicate all persons the Society would support to judge the breed without Challenge Certificates.
