"P17
9.7 Advisors are responsible for ensuring that the archives of development-led archaeological investigations are deposited in a suitable repository. They should seek to ensure that, prior to the commencement of investigations, applicants or their agents establish contact with repositories willing to accept archaeological archives, or alternatively identify appropriate temporary storage."
Glossary says :
Advisor
An individual or organisation providing archaeological advice and information on the undesignated built, buried, intertidal and submerged historic environment employed or contracted to a local authority, national heritage body, charitable trust, national park, other public body or private sector business.
So...do we have definitions of 'suitable repository'? Seems not. Is the Advisor the consultant archaeologist or the archaeological contractor awarded the contract?
And
"applicants or their agents establish contact with repositories willing to accept archaeological archives, or alternatively identify appropriate temporary storage"
...no definition of appropriate temporary storage.
And who is the applicant or their agent? Do they take the Advisor's advice on this? How hard to they try to find a repository willing to accept the archive> WHo decides how hard they have tried? Or do they order thier own skip??? :face-stir:
There's an awful lot going on in this document isn't there?:0

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, Merlot in one hand, Cigar in the other; body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO, what a ride!
