Two letters on the ARB

摘要

Gordon Gibb's claim that the ARB Reform Group has achieved nothing is as extraordinary as it is unsustainable ('ARB vice-chair slams RIBA for endorsing candidates', TheAJ.co.uk 02.02.12). It is a matter of public record that the group initiated and persuaded the board to ratify the following reforms: the prosecution of title abuse and the 22,000 audit of the directories, restricting the wasteful monitoring of Pll and competence, better preparation of the budget, lowering of the retention fee, abolition of working groups and institution of third party review.
