Any sheep not passing the Inspection should be removed from their pens on the morning of the sale, and will not be permitted to be sold through the auction ring. During the Inspection, tattoos/ tags will be checked. All sheep must be clearly tattooed/tagged and the tattoo/tag must correspond with the catalogue.

Council, through the Chairman/Vice-Chairman reserve the right to reject an animal that does not come up to the Breed Society standard as stated in the Flock Book. No consignor will have any claim for damages in respect of any animal which does not meet the Breed Society standard or the Inspection.
