Councils have no problem signing up with accreditation schemes like Investors in People, sustainanability etc, or with individual members of staff belonging to surveyors, planning and other membership groups. I don't see why there would be any issue in principle with IfA. As I said earlier, I welcome councils signing up to an externally-defined code of practice rather than being free to act however arbitrarily they choose.
