It seems to me that if farmers and MDs are unhappy about this public funding then we should start thinking about changing the rules so that we don't pay farmers subsides for heritage and we put them back into the "normal" planning process, we could also get rid of PAS and use all the money saved from ELS, HLS and PAS to start public funding of county archaeology units. No? not a good idea? contentious perhaps? But If people don't want money for nothing then I say take it off them}

More running around in circles justifying various positions.
Any positive points of what can be done.
Ive already proposed to David of setting up a national database of detectorists that archaeologists can call upon for assistance.
