    ALGAO LAS Covid-19 Impact Survey: An ALGAO:Cymru perspective on the results

    July 17, 2020 / No Comments

    from https://www.algao.org.uk/news/algao-las-covid-19-impact-survey-algaocymru-perspective-results The ALGAO COVID-19 Impact study was published earlier this week with the support of ALGAO:Cymru. Of the respondents to the UK-wide survey, over 98 percent of local authorities continued to provide a level of planning function despite the lockdown. Whilst some aspects of local authority archaeological work in Wales was impacted by the pandemic in terms of staffing and service level, this does not appear to have affected its capacity to provide a planning service. Most aspects of this have continued at full capacity despite unprecedented adversity. Wales has been incredibly resilient and these findings demonstrate how diligent colleagues and their organisations have been during this period. As…

    Impact of Covid-19 on Local Authority Archaeology Services

    July 14, 2020 / No Comments

    Landward Research has undertaken a rapid survey of ALGAO members to find out how the Covid-19 pandemic has affected the work of archaeological advisors to local government across the UK. The overwhelming majority of ALGAO members have been able to continue to deliver services as they were able to do before the onset of the pandemic. This means that the availability of local government advice has not been a factor leading to a reduction in archaeological work. The majority (c.70%) of ALGAO members have continued to provide planning advice, policy advice, to comment on active developments and to provide Historic Environment Record services. The report is available for download at…
