In the case where it is, are we suggesting that just because a graded conservation architect is being paid for by the owner of the property, he or she could not do an adequate and sufficient job to oversee such works? Does Mr. Lumley not believe that would be appropriate, given the resources constraints that are there? We have to acknowledge that it is all well and good to present the utopian view that we should have X, Y and Z. However, given the constraints that we have, is this not an avenue that we can use in order to try to speed up delivery while also being cognisant and mindful of protecting the integrity of the structure?
