"Any more takers here?"...n dare I ask "if not, why not" please?

 

If the fact that the Local Council's jurisdiction doesn't require such, either for their own trees or TPO'd trees (preferentially / indirectly), then the XXX Council "chicken n egg" scenario may be of interest.

 

Essentially, some years ago, the XXX Council  contract was won by an "out of area / region" ARB Approved Contractor much to the dismay of the local arb contracting fraternity (at the time only one of which was ARB Approved.) Over the term of the 3-year (I think) contract 3 or 4 others became ARB Approved and, at contract renewal, one of them won the contract.

 

Thereafter, with an active nucleus of ACs, XXX Council started directing TPO'd tree work to them, indirectly, and neighbouring Councils started to do the same. Later the County Council included "ARB Approved Contractor...or equivalent" in their framework tender and then the FC regional office did the same.

 

Essentially, through the scheme, the arb fraternity in the region set a benchmark which the local authority etc. network "bought in to" and harmony prevails

 

Thanks for your comments..

Paul
