Competitive Obedience judges and Societies are invited to note that Regulation G32.f has been suspended with immediate effect until 31 December 2027.
The regulation limited judges to judging Open Class C at a maximum of six shows per calendar year. The suspension aims to provide judges with greater flexibility when accepting judging appointments and to support Societies that have experienced difficulties securing judges for their shows.
For reference, Regulation G32.f states:
‘A person must not judge Open Class C at more than 6 shows in any year calculated from 1st January to 31st December.’
The suspension will remain in place until 31 December 2027, after which it will be reviewed.
