7.2.1 Minutes of Meeting of KZNPC held on 08.04.2017
Received and circulated on 10.05.2017.
A quorum was present.
Item 7 of the above Minutes refers:
In the minutes it was not recorded if they were referring to standard Champion or Grand Champion requirements for Working Disciplines.
For Working Disciplines, QC’s (Qualifying Certificates) no "away points" are required only 3 different judges at 3 shows.
For Working Disciplines - Grand Champion – i.e. requirements are that not more than a certain number are gained in any one Province with a balance gained in at least two other Provinces.
Provinces, meaning KZN, WC, FS, GAU, EC
For the standard Breed Champions we use Centres, i.e. Northern Coastal and Southern Coastal KZN. Pietermaritzburg is in the Northern Coastal Region. If a dog receives a CC at Pietermaritzburg Kennel Club (North), then another at Durban & Districts (which is Southern) it means they have their “away point”.
For Breed Grand Champions they need different Geographical Provinces, i.e. KZN, WC, FS, GAU, EC the same as Working Disciplines.
On the description (see attached) for Grand Champion requirements. For Breed it refers to Geographical Provinces whereas for Working Disciplines simply say "Provinces".
(Attachment circulated with agenda.)
Noted with the comment that people were confusing Provinces with Centres and there was a need to specify what the provinces are on the application form.
