Taking stock as Rock starts RIBA presidency last lap

Article Abstract:

The Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) has benefitted from the work done by organisation president David Rock, who has been involved in a membership drive and reforming educational procedures for architectural students. Rock's presidency will end in July 1999, leaving his successor with a solid framework to develop in the millennium. The RIBA takes up almost all of Rock's working week, allowing him a little time for sitting on the board of the Arts Council.

RIBA aims to dominate poll at Architects Registration Board

Article Abstract:

Elections for seats on the new Architects Registration Board are underway and the RIBA is aiming to ensure it gains a key share of seats. The Department of the Environment is to choose seven members of the profession along with eight lay members. A large proportion of the candiates are members of the institute and the aim is that the new board will not perform the same activities and functions already undertaken by the professional bodies.
