CIfA is delighted that the Levelling-up and Regeneration Bill has received Royal Assent. This means that Historic Environment Records will have statutory status, securing their role in the new digital planning system. #CIfAadvocacy

Having sat on the IWG for a few years now this is disappointing 😟 we have done so much good work, far beyond just discussing wages.

@prospectarchs are in meetings collating thoughts, but we certainly see the value in cross industry conversations and collaboration

🚨New blog post🚨

Continuing the conversation around the government's proposed "Investment Zones", we explain why the link between archaeology and planning is so essential, the importance of sustainable development and how we are taking action 👇

[ArchaeologyUK @archaeologyuk]

The CBA are deeply concerned by the government’s proposals in the mini budget regarding environmental and planning deregulation & the introduction of “Investment Zones”. These plans pose a direct challenge to the way the historic environment is managed and cared for today! (1/6)
