Getting there!
I know I sound horribly negative about all this, but I'm not really!
So the curator nips round and finds the contractor doing (or not doing) what he shouldn't (or should). Maybe he's IFA registered, maybe he's not. If so Mr/Ms Curator can phone the IFA, if not, it might get tricky. The contract which the naughty contractor is in breach of is between him and the developer, presumably. The developer has a direct relationship with the curator via his playmates in the planning department.
I'm just thinking what happens if it gets nasty and legal/contractual (there's money involved!). The curator needs to be tough, and needs the back up of the planning department as a whole.
Or am I just too suspicious/cynical?
