Maybe in name. Ex-RCHME staff did very well infiltrating the then "Conservation" Department (now Heritage Protection), and their Investigators have won out in the most recent blood-letting. CADW be warned!
Bear in mind that any merger of this sort means ever-increasing redundancies and diminished capacity - not to mention adding to the glut of unemployed applicants chasing too few jobs in the "outside world". After all the main reason it would be recommended in the first place is to reduce overall gov't budgets, so you can also look forward to cuts to grant programmes down the road...
