A majority of at least 5:2 is required in order to overturn a record that has previously been accepted by SBRC.
The same voting procedure is required in order to overturn old Scottish records (not just those previously accepted by SBRC) that have in the past been generally accepted. Also in the case of old records there must be a valid reason for rejection; insufficient information (now being available) is not a valid reason on its own. Circulations involving old records normally include comments from our Museum Consultant.
