Quote:[SIZE=3]As I was told today by one "over worked" county arch they will no longer be setting conditions on smaller jobs, such a extensions, swimming pools, garages etc as they just haven't got the time ...... now the cynic may suggest the time management ability .... however THIS directly affect all archaeologist tendering for jobs, because there is now fewer of them. Also a lack of smaller jobs will hit the small companies and one man bands the hardest.

That’s the point [SIZE=4]Relictor. They are not doing it anyway and are likely to do it less. We need the other way mentioned in PPS. What we need as a start is a section on the standard planning application forms, which are handed out by most local authorities, which with refer to archaeological conservation. A lot of the application forms already have a section for Biodiversity and Geological Conservation, trees and hedges, flood prevention, and for which if it isn’t obvious the applicant will seek the advice of relevant authorities on those subjects before putting in the application.[/SIZE]
Brody of the glens appears to imagine that something called a report –presumably archaeological, is put in with the application for all to see. Maybe the tartan brody may like to point us to an example or two. Here is an example representative of a common type of planning application provided by a planning authority which has prevision for statements to be made about Biodiversity and Geological Conservation, trees, floods but no mention about archaeology, reports, whatever that might be in brodies mind.
