Who would these volunteers represent? What would their contractual status be and how would they fit in to the contractual relationships? What exactly are they monitoring - "standards" is a very vague term, and there is a difference between contractual disputes, i.e. one party failing, or being alleged to have failed, to fulfil its contractual obligations, and professional or ethical issues. The two will often coincide, or overlap, but not always. Would a monitor spot the failure to carry out post-ex properly, or to submit a satisfactory report on time? What if they disagreed with the curator, and indeed the consultant? What do they do if they spot something they don't like (other than Troll scratching himself
) - do the phone the curator, the IFA or the BAJR hotline? But then, why can't anyone else do that already?
Presumably in order to have the required knowledge and skills they are likely to be ex-professonals. Will anyone really work for nothing? Expenses?
To be honest I think this is a non-starter.
We owe the dead nothing but the truth.
