CCAB disappears
When Accountancy Age revealed a couple of weeks ago that the CCAB, the profession’s umbrella body, was in danger of falling apart because of a spat between ICAS, the ICAEW and CIPFA, TS was initially unconcerned. After all, you would hope that grown men of such standing would be able to resolve their differences without too much fuss.
So it was a bit of a shock when we decided to visit the website of said body only to find it had disappeared. Just two lines of text currently constitute the CCAB’s site one its name and the other telling us the site is being ‘redeveloped’.
You have to wonder if this development is currently on hold until the malaise between the institutes is sorted out.

Listed below are links to weblogs that reference CCAB disappears.
Is it a mere coincidence that the website name www.ccab.org.uk is in fact owned and registered by the ICAEW?
Perhaps until ICAEW get their own way CCAB will not be making an appearance?
Perhaps they should get their own domain name but they had better be quick -
www.ccab.co.uk is already registered by a domain registration company and www.ccab.com and www.ccab.net are used by the Canadian Council for Aboriginal Business.

Perhaps CCAB should change its name to the Committee Representing the Accounting Profession?
www.crap.co.uk
For the Irish equivalent www.crap.ie
For the personal touch www.crap.me
and if they ever started a tv show www.crap.tv
Just a thought!
