Quote:quote:Where the problems start is the excessive use of volunteers in a commercial context which means qualified individual archaeologists loose out
I would support the above. On a related point, tenders can be seriously distorted if one contractor is relying on volunteers and another is using professional archaeologists. Tender 1 will be cheaper, but likely to do a worse-quality job and unlikely to meet the programme.
