I would be perfectly happy to undertake that kind of work as well.
If curatorial bodies are to be assessed then this would raise major issues. On a daily basis i have to make decisions on what to make recommendations on simply to keep my work load at a managable level. I have to work to a series of timetabled requirements not to mention all the glories of Best Value. Curating the resource is a continual series of compromises based on where we feel there are likely to be the most damaging impacts based on the two line description in the planning list and the grid reference (frequently wrong for one of my boroughs) showing the location of the site.
Without more staff and funding I think it would be quite difficult for a curatorial RAO system to be meaningful unless, from the start, it recognised the daily compromises which have to be made.
