IfA : Standards and Guidance acting as a professional body --- (it often says it is not a union - well it must remember it is not an employers organisation as well)
FAME: representing Employers - not setting standards, but dealing with business
PROSPECT/DF : Representing employees - standing up for rights and pay/conditions
CBA/Arch Scotland : Representing archaeology to teh public, not commercial work
EH/HS/CADW: National policy
ALGAO: dealing with curatorial and planning issues.. how this impacts commercial work and standards.. (plus HER or SMR work)
I could draw a venn diagram... but people must try and stick to their area, with intersections made to ensure everyone is informed and acting accordingly (joined up thinking anyone?)
And BAJR... hmm... BAJR? More the platform, the stage , the box at speakers corner... all welcome... as long as you don't rave (too much)
