Gosh! Took you a long time to get enough bile together for that! Welcome back. :face-approve:
Any helpful stats to contribute on how many times the construction industry was/wasn't successful when it challenged PPG16 (which of course was never actually law)...and indeed has anyone challenged PPS5 in the courts yet? - and of course on most jobs the construction industry could just band together and agree that paying the fines would be cheaper than paying for the archaeology - seem to recall a recent thread about York and the stifling of development so the concept's out there, just needs some developer to begin the backlash....
