An interesting paralell in this country is the licence required to bother bats and badgers etc by environmental specialists. These are hard earned and have a knock on effect with wages and conditions. In France an archaeological licence is required and you have to go in front of a local commitee, including the Mayor, and prove your qualifications.I believe the French system is regional, so for example you could have a licence for Dieppe but not for Avignon. In my opinion a licence system in this country is the only way foward.Rise up citizen Troll!
