On the copyright issue Deep, an HS manual will surely be outlining current HS legislation-paid for by the taxpayer.Secondly, whilst I wholeheartedly support the rights of the author(s), I would argue that to deny the workforce access to this document would be a spectacular (PR) own goal. The author(s) may argue that access is granted when a price (I hear around 50 squid) is paid for the book as is their right however, I would argue that Commercial units should and, if they have any sense of what is right, shoulder this cost and ensure that EVERY site has access to a copy as a matter of urgency. In support of the SCAUM, I heartily welcome the publishing of this important document. The IFA would have simply applied for funding in order to secure yet another pointless 10 year study to discuss whether it would be worth it to write one. SCAUM have done it so, lets have it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
