Indeed, although how many other bodies representing archaeologists are there that have access to such lists, apart from BAJR of course... has BAJR been corrupted by this power? Why would you be worried about the IfA having such a power, they can at least be held accountable by the members? If you think that an organisation is so poor they really shouldn't be on the curator's list is there anything you can do about it?
Information could in this case give the power to remove poor archaeological contractors from such lists.
Anyway, I wouldn't suggest that the IfA control the only list of contractors - how on earth could they? But they could provide one that curators could be encouraged to point people at.
