    EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM TO THE ARCHITECTS ACT 1997 (AMENDMENTS ETC) ORDER 2014 2014 No. 4 1. This explanatory memorandum has been prepared by the Department for Communities and Local Government and is laid before Parliament by Command of Her Majesty. This memorandum contains information for the Joint Committee on Statutory Instruments. 2. Purpose of the instrument 2.1 This Order amends the Architects Act 1997 (the “Act”) First, it extends the tenure of a member of the Architects Registration Board. Secondly, it amends the definition of the ‘relevant European State’ used in the Act by including Switzerland within the definition. This amendment means that Swiss architects (an individual who is recognised or qualified to practice as or hold the title of architect in Switzerland) who wish to practice in the United Kingdom may now benefit from automatic recognition and other rights contained within European Directive 2005/36/EC on the Mutual Recognition of Professional Qualifications. 3. Matters of special interest to the Joint Committee on Statutory Instruments 3.1 None 4. Legislative Context 4.1 Directive 2005/36/EC on the Mutual Recognition of Professional Qualifications (“the Directive”) establishes a system for the mutual recognition of professional qualifications which is intended to make it easier for EU citizens who are entitled to exercise a regulated profession (one requiring proof of specific professional qualifications, such as an architect) in one Member State (their home State) to pursue the same profession in another Member State

  • RIBA's Submission to the Call for Evidence on Architects Regulation and the Architects Registration Board
    Royal Institute of British Architects RIBA's submission to the Call for Evidence on Architects Regulation and the Architects Registration Board 29 May 2014 The Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) champions better buildings, communities and the environment through architecture and its members. It has been promoting architecture and architects since being awarded its Royal Charter in 1837. The 40,000-strong professional institute is committed to serving the public interest through good design and professional standards. The RIBA members represent three quarters of the ARB registered architects in the UK as well as 4,300 chartered architects around the world. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The RIBA supports the continued independent statutory regulation of architects in the UK, in the public interest. This has existed for over 80 years and is well established and valued by UK consumers and by the profession as a way of confirming to clients the professional competency and integrity of fully qualified architects, and of providing safeguards against unlawful or incompetent practice. There is no compelling case to change the current structure, and there would be considerable costs and disruption associated with any major change. The three key reasons for the continuation of the regulation of architects in the UK are: 1. Value of architecture: the importance and public value of architecture to the shared environment, cultural heritage, economic success and well-being of society, with expensive and long term consequences for society if architectural skills and standards are inadequately applied. 2. Importance for consumers: the value and complexity of architectural services to often inexpert consumers, who need to be able to identify and rely upon registered ‘architects’ for major investment in their homes, workplaces and built environment.

Such a consultation is valueless if the premise on which the consultation is based is faulty, and my purpose in writing to you is to demonstrate that the Board’s governing statute, the Architects Act, permits the Board under section 4(1)(a) to engage in no activity beyond prescribing the qualification – whereas the Criteria to which you refer either in their present form or in any revised version are clearly intended to provide the means of validating courses rather than prescribing qualifications. The Board has a statutory duty to do no more than to prescribe qualifications and it follows that these Criteria are extraneous to the purposes of the Act. The Act The relevant part of the Act for the purpose of this consultation is section 4(1): A person who has applied to the Registrar in the prescribed manner for registration in pursuance of this section is entitled to be registered in Part 1 of the Register if he holds such qualifications and has gained such practical experience as may be prescribed..
