Livestock / Animal Husbandry | | Dutch term or phrase: zelfcontrolewaardig | What a ghastly word. I’d welcome any suggestions on how to translate it. IKB = Dutch quality assurance system. Zelfcontrole refers to the Verordening Zelfcontrole Varkens (Regulations governing self-monitoring of pigs).
- De slachterij mag alleen IKB-varkens afnemen van een IKB erkende varkenshouder. De slachterij dient dit bij iedere levering van IKB-varkens te controleren in het IKB register.
- De slachterij controleert bij iedere levering van varkens of de dieren **zelfcontrolewaardig** zijn in de daarvoor bestemde database. |

Having read the various parts of the website concerned with the IKB inspections and regulations I think that this would be a suitable translation
IKB inspections in the slaughterhouse
An independent inspection body verifies whether the slaughterhouses are complying with IKB standards. SGS Agrocontrol and the Dutch research institute TNO will carry out these compliance inspections until 2003. In checking whether a particular establishment meets the IKB requirements, SGS Agrocontrol/TNO rely on the slaughterhouse’s quality manual, in which the system of quality control used in the slaughterhouse is described. The inspection reports are submitted to the independent certification body, currently the Product Boards for Livestock, Meat and Eggs (PVE). However, the intention is that an independent, accredited certification body will take over this task sometime in 2003. If necessary, the certification body can require the slaughterhouses to make improvements. Failure to do so leads to sanctions and possible exclusion from the IKB programme

It might be even better as:

| Grading comment The fact that it was in fact me who translated the quality manual you quote (!) has in no way influenced my choice of this answer ;-) Did actually think of it myself after posting the question so it's nice to see we're on the same page. Thanks!
