that would be illegal ( R.P.R.A  rules ) as outside the sputnik so ineffect not within the confines of the loft or trapping system

 

slighty off subject........woz just wondering is it an RPRA rule to have your pads sealed in place??

just that this was mentioned at my club last week

thanks

seems to have been passed at shu level that they dont have to be sealed in,but contradictory to this rule it seems you can make it a club rule for them to be sealed in,what a total farce

the thing is with sealing the pads into place there is a lot more work cos who is going to go and seal the pads into place on a sat morning ? and return after the race to check the seals are still in place before removing it the reason i say this is who in their right mind will want to risk leaving a pad @£150 in a loft on an allotment ? or even in their garden for that as i for one could not afford to replace pads after the scum have been out and about and taken them from lofts they will take birds why not pads ? .

Feel, once again, that some should look at a dictionary and interpret 'Confines' and 'Confined' and while one's at it 'Confine' eh! Then re - read the wording of the ruling!

Interesting to see in the West Midland Region notes that they are writing to the RPRA to find out if Traps that are advertised as being approved by the RPRA actually are,also asking the RPRA council to clarify the rule which says,The anttennae of the ETS must be fitted within the confines of the loft or trapping system,not underneath external landing boards.Sorry but to me its straight forward enough.
