Scientific paper

We present optical spectra and redshifts for flat-spectrum radio sources taken from the second Caltech-Jodrell Bank VLBI sample. The sources were observed using the Faint Object Spectrograph on the Isaac Newton Telescope. We show optical spectra for 90 sources, out of a total of 101 observed; of the remaining 11 sources, nine were not detected, and two were mis-identified. Definite redshifts have been determined for 60 sources, and a further seven have probable redshifts determined. Five sources are shown to have featureless BL Lac type spectra, and 18 sources are too weak to give a reliable redshift.
