The Bill and Beyond: implementing the new heritage protection system
The Archaeology Forum is holding a seminar, 'The Bill and Beyond', on Tuesday 7 October 2008, 11 am - 4.30 pm, hosted by the Society of Antiquaries of London. It will provide an update on progress with the current heritage protection reforms, both the Heritage Protection Bill itself and much more that is happening alongside it, and an opportunity for discussion of the practicalities of beginning to implement the changes.
There will be presentations from DCMS on progress with drafting the Bill and related draft guidance and secondary legislation; and from English Heritage on plans for implementation, guidance and training in the sector. The afternoon session will include presentations from key stakeholders with their perspectives on opportunities, challenges and the longer term implications of the planned changes. Speakers will represent the Institute of Historic Building Conservation, the Institute of Field Archaeologists, the Association of Local Government Archaeological Officers, and the Joint Committee of National Amenity Societies.
With invited representatives from a range of other heritage organisations in England and Wales, there will be opportunities for questions and lively discussion throughout the day. A full programme for the day will be available shortly from the Society of Antiquaries (http://www.sal.org.uk/ ). Places are limited so early booking is recommended.
To book for the event, contact the Society of Antiquaries of London, Burlington House, Piccadilly, London W1J 0BE (tel: 020 7479 7080, fax: 020 7287 6967 or email mailto:[log in to unmask] ). There is a charge of £15 / head to cover refreshments throughout the day, including lunch. Payment should be made in advance by cheque or by telephone / email with credit/debit card details.
