Well the deadline has 2 more days ... the final count is now over 1825
http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/Archaeology/
Given the recent troubles, I am sure the Govt. has other things on its mind.. However...
Rather than create a statement that would be unfair to those that signed, I have suggested that we prepare a statement to reply to the expected reply. The Diggers Forum are putting together a document... as should we.. Not asking for more pay - but aking for support in creating the conditions where a professional archaeologist is seen as an integrated part of any project, like an architect, engineer or geotechnical survey crew... if we have a structured profession, providing a professional service, then the pay follows.... (or should!)
What do you think!
