There are a variety of implications for organisations that publish standards for research practice, some of which have been discussed already (e.g. under ‘mandatory or voluntary principles and standards’, above). It is vital that learned societies and professional bodies have a voice in the development of such standards but they must also consider the practical and practice consequences when they devise, promote and protect them. They must be aware of the tendency of researchers and organisations to treat guidance for research practice as a matter of regulatory or contractual compliance, rather than as an inherent part of professional conduct. They must also be aware that they might have to adopt certain ‘protectionist’ devices, such as the ‘licensing’ issues discussed earlier.37 They could also have such ‘protectionist’ devices bestowed upon them, if you will, through serious misconceptions about the stakeholders’ relationship with the standards.
