Anyhow maybe I'm confused or maybe (as is usually the case) there are very different ways of doing things in different countries.
Let me put it this way
Previously the Swedish government (like Norway) banned certain breeds. While Norway increased the anount of banned breeds, the Swedish government decreased its number to zero.

The Swedish Kennel Klub, however, do not register CSV and SW and the two breeds are (until now ?) not allowed to participate in dog shows arranged by the Swedish Kennel Club.
