Shepheard Epstein & Hunter 60 Kingley Street -Regent Street London W1R 6EY Dear Mr. Allan, A.R.C.U.K. ae Nice (bA afer Cur Aon F arr:O NACHSHEN CROFTS& EGGATT ; Consulting Engineers 192-198 VAUXHALL BRIDGE ROAD LONDON SW1V 1DXx J ECROFTIS MC FICE FGS MSIC(France) MConst AJ LEGGATT BSc FICE FiStructE FIArh MSIC(France) MConst G E BRATCHELL BSc FICE FIStructE MIWES MConsé 0WSWAINBScOMNICE Private LCJOMNScDEICMSiStroctE Teli01-8341575 ameserrryre Telex 917502 JGACH FIStructé GMPINBScFDICOFILCEFDiStuctt ae we [Rarbof Lyre Bs ths SORE sets) ae By way of brief introduction, I am a more or less permanent member of A.R.C.U.K council, representing structural engineers. I am not an architect - attached nor unattached. I can thus afford to be neutral and objective in my dealings with A.R.C.U.K. but nevertheless I am very keen that the objects of A.R.C.U.K., which are to administer certain acts of Parliament, are properly and fairly achieved. It occurs to me now that I might possibly be of some help to A.R.C.U.K. in respect of the position of the unattached council members vis-a-vis the chairman and officers. For the last few years the unattached architects on council @ have provided an interesting, and at times - welcome, intrusion into the otherwise monolithic conduct of the meetings. For the general health of A.R.C.U.K., I think this is good but I am now becoming worried that too much antagonism is building up between the unattached members and the "establishment". The December 12th meeting was about the worst I have attended and was most depressing. Although I think the Chairman tried hard to maintain the order and the dignity of the proceedings, there were times when matters proceeded ina thoroughly bad way. Certainly a great deal of time was wasted and meetings such as that can only bring eventual discredit of A.R.C.U.K. as a whole. Responsibility for this poor state of affairs, in my view, lies more or less equally in all directions but that aspect does not particularly concern me. What does concern me very deeply is that A.R.C.U.K. should not become a shambles and I am sure that this view is shared by yourself and the other unattached members of council. Now the point of my letter is to offer myself as a link (or if you prefer it, a "go-between"), neutral and disinterested, whereby unattached members of council can have a communication channel through to the chairman and officers and - most important-vice versa. If I proved acceptable to both sides, I could not guarantee that all issues could be speedily settled but in a percentage of cases I feel that a lot of time, heat and exasperation could be avoided at the council meetings. My three main qualifications for this task might be summarized as follows:- ts Die I am independent of the issues likely to arise but at the same time feel a responsibility to promote and support the proper and fair administration of A.R.C.U.K. as a statutory body. I am experienced in the conduct and behaviour of a number of organizations which are democratically based. All of these organizations have, from time to time, their ginger-groups, rebels, protest movements as well as their reactionaries, "establishments" and the like. At various times I have found myself a member of almost all such factions! I have served on the council of my own professional organization (the ACE), I am President elect of the consulting engineers Common Market liaison committee and I have written the constitution for and helped with the administration of, a successful national charity - apart from all my technical work as an engineer. Bo Any services I provided in this respect would be confidential i.e. I would not be known outside the parties using the channel of communication nor would I be known in this role to the council itself. I am making this suggestion off my own bat and there is nothing lying behind or underneath the offer. I have not so far approached the chairman and obviously his co-operation would be essential. I hope you will pursue my suggestion for at worst, nothing would be lost and at best, both time and temper would be saved and perhaps some of the objectives of the unattached architects would be achieved more speedily. With best wishes for a happy Christmas. Yours sincerely, A.J.Leggatt » Mo De.Kappa OA yr o_ Fae eneGUO oe ain. ere GN Ja QU yor a) CS CRS ES Ane Gun x HikeDaven Cs.

MOTION C This Council directs the Registrar to write to the Secretary of the National Joint Council for Local Authorities with the request that the Secretary once again reiterates the statement circulated by the NJ CLA in 1978 to the Chief Executives of all Authorities. The statement should consist (as previously) of 'l a firm reiteration that membership of the RIBA should not be inferred as conferring any additional qualification" with regard to the title or job description of architect.

I spent the best six years of my life studying to become an architect, at the end of which time I was accepted as an associate (the good old title) of the Institute, and haven't I paid for it since. The time has now arrived when I must seriously consider my resigning from the Institute which, after 24 years' membership, would be a decision of great sadness. Irvine J. E. Bendelow Watford, Herts Tile tale From Paul McGinty of H. & R. Johnson Tiles Ltd Sir: I write to correct a number of statements made in your Products in practice supplement on plaster, render and tiles (AJ 4.7.84). First, the assertion that British ceramic tile manufacturers have followed the continentals in marketing a 'universal' tile has no foundation. The Johnson universal edge has, since the late 1970s, remained unique in that it is self-spacing, thereby acting to replace spacer and border tiles while leaving sufficient width for the grouted joints. We know of no continental tile that has this facility. Second, in conjunction with our sister company, A. G. Tiles, H. & R. Johnson manufactures in 14 different sizes including those (200 x 150 mm, 200 x 200 mm and 300 x 200 mm) which you suggest are the preserve of the continentals. Rest assured, if the UK market demands even bigger tiles in sufficient commercial quantities then the companies of the Norcros Ceramic Division are quite prepared to meet that demand. Paul McGinty Stoke-on-Trent Quids out From John Harris, curator ofthe British Architectural Library Drawings Collection Sir: James Dunnett's appreciative review of Richard Seifert's exhibition at the Heinz Gallery contains a misstatement (AJ 21.11.84 p34). Seifert has never been a 'substantial benefactor' to the Heinz. Indeed he has never been a benefactor to the Drawings Collection at all. The fact that this comment is made at the end of Dunnett's article might convey the impression that the exhibition was a quid pro quo and this is certainly not the case. John Harris London WI I am sorry to have given an incorrect impresston, although I understand that Colonel Seifert has made generous benefactions to the RIBA in other respects.

This would enable all architects who wish to depart from the Monopiy to do so Any new recommended fee systems should be based on ranges of architects' own costs instead of the discredited 'ad valorem! method It may be considered simplest for the Government (DoE) to prepare the primary recommended fee scale for its own use in assessing value for money in public sector commissions thus avoiding the additional administration and expense of a new agency Recommended fee scales may be prepared by other bodies both within and outside the profession provided the following conditions are observed a) Copies are deposited with Minister for Consumer Affairs ° b) ‘The non-mandatory status is clearly printed on all documents in which reference to the fee scale is made The Government should conduct periodic reviews (the first within 3 years) to ensure that a de facto monoyiy is not being established through RIBA dominance . It may be appropiate to consider providing the OFT with these review powersein the proposed Competition Bill. The apparently enhanced competative conditions arising from architectural design competitions must be set against the disadvantages of considerable abortive work and time and reduced client influence in the development of the brief and we feel that design competitions would thus continue to be of benefit in only limited circumstances A (pit(4 DAVID ROEBUCK On Behalf Of JOHN ALLAN ROBERT MALTZ JOHN MURRAY Yours sincerely Our proposals now combine the benefits of competition in both quality and fee in suggesting that architects in competing for a commission should include a fee quotation alongside full information as to their experience, resources and capabilities. Quotations should be explicit as to architects costs and could be presented in the format drafted in Appendix I of our report. (vidi) Fee quotation and then negotiation would probably be the most effective method given the obvious disadvantages of straight ES tendering. As agreed, a straight tendering system apart from being vulnerable to the dangers of "ringing" would reduce the client's opportunity to take into account considerations of quality when assessing commissions in terms of value for money. Conversely negotiation alone with a selected architect does not meet the criteria of increased competition (ix) We consider it most unlikely that architects would be tempted to work uneconomically for the temporary advantage of obtaining commissions but we would expect that the enhanced climate for competition would encourage a considerably greater diversity of services available to the consumer With regard to your question as to the possible RIBA response to the adoption of these proposals we consider this less likely to be a bang than a whimper. We should be glad to assist in any costing exercise that the Government may initiate and trust that in the event of any further discussions on this or related matters with your department, the OFT or the DoE we hope that the 'Unattached' representing nearly 20% of the profession continue to be consulted.

Now that the dust is settling 4 little , I have been thinking about the consequences of recent events. I shall be resigning from the RIBA as I do not think that can stay 4&4member that treats any contrary opinion or minority view with such distain. I think that there has been = change of view by other minorites on ARCUK & a permanent political shift; non-RIBA members will no longer trust the RIBA & are likely to vote against their block vote. This means that the unattached & mon-RIBA members could gain control of ARCUK within 5 years. I enclose notes on the situation which you might like to discuss with your colleagues. Vva = incerely, GR Adams. Dr Tom Wooley School of Architecture Humberside College of Higher Education Strand Close Hull HUZ OBT page 1 ty (D to Notes NUMBERS esent disagreements with RIBA are about cont rol rather than education. RIBA is concerned that if ARCUEK takes on more responsibilities, this will lead to an increase in ARCUK retention fee & make architects more likely to not join or resien from RIBA thus leading to long term Weakness division in the profession The attached chart shows the lone term trends. Since 1972 RIBA numbers have stuck at 20,000 to 20,500 giving 40 to 42 seats. The statutory numbers have remained at 13. The -~RIBA canstituent bodies have fallen from 8 to 6. The unattached have risen from 5 to 13 The update of ARCUK numbers at 15 April 1987 shows these trends continuing, with RIBA (20462) -1 & unattached (6771) 41. But these fisures could change by 31 October, the count date. With a big effort, if unattached could gain 230, they would gain 2 seats for 1968. The average increase on the register in the past 5 years isoc 423, & in the past 4 years 514. Tt seems that most of the new architects do not join RIBA but prefer to register only Because of the number of students at the nools this increase of about 500 per a continue for at least the next 6 to 7 years. At this rate,, the unattached would gain 4 to 5 seats in the next & years Since 1977, the AA has lost 2 seats. If all the non RIBA bodies had a drive tol nereasse their numbers they could gain extra seat1s:. Because double representation is allowed, if AA & STAMP in particular could accept each others membeers, & get to 1001 & 501 respectively, then each would fain 1 seat. If FAS & TAAS also reciprocated & each got to S01, they would each fain 1 s When the Order in Council ifs approved, all EEC architects will be able to get on the ARCUK register. The Irish are most likely to benifit. They have put forward both University Collese & Bolten Street Schools, producing 80 graduates per annum. RIBA has only recognised University College. Because oa shortage of work in Eire, the #resat majority of the eraduates go abroard &£ most come to UE, particularly Ulster. They may be reluctant to join RIBA because page i on ARCUE i5 April 1987 oO (D hy ti oO ej or (0 Tg 4 of the high subs & most will become unattached. They are likely to come from:- a RIAI members wanting a business address in UE or already here. b Non RIAT now working in UE. Cc New graduates from the 2 schools. If a lot of publicity was given to these opportunties both in UE & Eire, & 501 registered in next 5 years a unattached could gain 2 seats. Pecause RIBA is commiting itself to high expenditure in UIA, expansion at No 66, more staff for regions & also facing loss of revenue temporally from their Companies moving to Sxpensive accomodation, RIBA subs are likely to increase at more than average rate of inflation ot 5%. The sub might increase from £ISS to £168 if at 52 & near £180 if more. There may be an increasing number who will not be Willing to pay & will not join or resign. This may lead to the loss of some say 3 seats over 5 yeare.

Robert Johnson is a barrister & legal advisor on RIBA staff & adminsters ICT. If RIBA lose JCT, © ohnseon would be redundant. RIBA would like him to be the next registrar. He is a quiet man & would be an RIBA puppet. With his legal & architectural experience, he would be a strong candidate. RIBA wants to get their nominees in place to make this appointment in the next 3 years & to do this must control F & GP & staff sub-committee. If the unattached & non-RIBA members wish to gain control of ARCUEK Council, they must:- a Ensure that BAE has joint or total control of visiting boards & recognition. b Appoint Secretary of BAE & support staff. c Get ARCUK to spend on more activities & staff, so that the retention fee increases & more are likely to be unattached. page 2 iQ FROM THE ROSCOE PROFESSOR OF ARCHITECTURE JOHN NELSON TARN, B.ARCH., PH.D., F.R.1.B.A., F.R.HISTS.

The Architects Directive Working Group is coming to the end of its job and I think it is sensible that the present group should be disbanded. For this coming session I intend to constitute an advisory group consisting of myself, Kenneth Taylor, Alan Groves and David Waterhouse. David, being in London, will be able to answer and respond quickly to any issues which arise from DOE. He, of course, has all the experience, too. My best wishes. Yours sincerely, a I understand that you intend to be present at the CLAEU Meeting in Granada on the 29th April. Neither Kenneth Taylor nor myself will be present and in order that the situation may be legally correct I have asked Alan Groves to formally represent me and ARCUK. I think it is not possible for you to do this since you are no longer however, enclosing the papers which were sent to ARCUK, since these are the only set, I understand, which we possess. Kenneth Forder tells me that you wish to retain the Chairmanship on the J.C.AeRe I do not think that this is possible, since you are not on Council, and I believe that the constitution of the group will have tp be Kenneth Taylor and myself, as the two surviving members with experience of the meetings in September, and Alan Groves, who is the most recent past Chairman , still on Council. a member of Council. I am, I hope you will understand that I find this letter a somewhat distasteful one to have to write, but it seems to me that it is better for me to clear the air about the formal issues now. I am greatly saddened by the events of the last few weeks, more particularly because it inevitably means a constraint between you and me after many years of friendship which go back to my early days in Sheffield. Inclse CLAEU papers - I should be grateful if you would please let me have these back.

In view of this I think it essential that we all meet to discuss future strategy and tactics. Ken Forder agreed to pay our expenses to meet and I think we should take him up on this. This can either be arranged in London or I can offer Hull as a venue (which might be a more relaxed place to meet). As Alastair usually acts as co-ordinator, I will leave it to him to find a date. In the past our pre-meetings are rarely 100% attended, often I miss them myself, and I think that we should all make a superhuman effort to get together at least once. I also think we must use the advantage of numbers to continue to split RIBA voting, which means everyone attending meetings. For instance if Les Porsyth can't manage to come to meetings, he should stand down in favour of Andy Earl who I think is next on the voting list, especially as his boss is now ARCUK Chairman!
