Dutch term

lastenboek

Non-PRO Dutch to English Bus/Financial Insurance
I'm proofreading a topic I'm not terribly well versed in: insurance directives. Would "specifications" do for "lastenboek"?

Minimum lastenboek betreffende de burgerlijke beroepsaansprakelijkheidsverzekeringen verduistering door personeelsleden, met als voorwerp artikel 9 van de deontologie.
Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

PRO (1): Michael Beijer

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

There are other possibilities for a contract but if you are happy with specifications, fine with me too.
writeaway Feb 10, 2005:
Is it a Flemish text?
Non-ProZ.com Feb 10, 2005:
I have found the term--which is indeed "specifications"--thank you.
