Agree Sparky-would be a way forward. I certainly agree that the IFA should not become the licensing body-any more than Prospect could claim to represent archaeologists. In the main analysis, the IFA simply IS the root of the problem. The Irish system does seem to filter out the crud however, people do fall through the cracks.How do we licence archaeologists? Who would be the examining body? Why do developers assume that the IFA are respectable and have any impact on anything at all?[?]If developers are convinced that IFA membership is some sort of a guaruntee of ability and professionalism, I think it`s time we got a bit louder...
