yes as they do all other rings , i have flown welsh birds scotish birds nehu birds all not my union but as long as im the registered keeper then they can compete , they wont be reported to the R.P.R.A but to a new union
they only permit the use of rings from recognised unions, a breakaway may not be recognised and they would not have to accept the use of the rings! As I said they won't allow some rings that they sell, distribute and register now to be used on race birds!
then surely the way forward would be to get a membership base to form a new union, however if they dont reconise some ring they distribute then it would be hyprocitical not to recognise a new union
what would worry me about the scheme is 1/ the centralisation might make it even less in touch with grassroots than the rpra allready is. 2/ the full cost savings might not materialise if further tiers of fulltime management were needed (eg regional managers reporting to national management ) and if allowed to become a self perpetuating beuracracy....now that would be costly! 3/ 'divide and rule' was the old adage but if the new organistion fell under defras spell they would be running the sport...the rpra did a good job on avian flu but it needed a bilco wake up call finally 4/ if the new organisation maintained the current lack of transparency in its work lots of members would feel even less enfranchised. i've voted no (sorry) but i'm willing to be converted
