Had a lovely chat with Paul (from CPAT and an old digging chum ) and he explained that they have no list at all now. and currently - if asked - suggest that clients look for archaeologists on the IfA ROs website. which is all well and good.
There is no restriction in terms of a client hoving into view with a non-IfA archaeolgoist as long as the work is done to the proper Standard ( and here I am in agreement - this is IfA standard --- as it is the only archaeology standard there is IFA’s code of conduct and standards for archaeological recording .)
It is good to have these debates and allow open discussion. and I for one look forward to the day when there is a real barrier to the dodgy 'archaeologists' whoever or whatever they are. and that joining the IfA is a carrot with a stick. but mainly a carrot, that you want to join not have to.
