tmsarch - that's a good point; there is a halfway house where LAs may be choosing to restrict any information on possible contractors to a list of ROs. My understanding is that LAs have the power to do this if they choose, but its actual impact depends on how many developers find their archaeological contractors from the LA: in a mature business (like building) the LA has no real role in funneling work to the industry.
