Without wishing to put words into others mouths, I think the issue that I wanted to put across is that we all know the problems, and now need to debate the solutions. If the IFA needs to do more then lets bring ideas like the digger rep proposal which was discussed at length elsewhere. If nothing else, the IFA recognition of this would help with the RAOs and securing diggers employment stability should they flag something up, which I agree is an issue at present with short-term contracts.
For my part, the suggestion of 'lunacy' or that you were in a minority was not intended. I merely wanted to keep people in the debate rather than outside it, which in the end is good for the profession.
