David,
Julian expressed concern that tree risk could not be adequately evaluated
from a walk-by inspection. You responded that it's a matter of degree and
expediency, and went on to be rather dismissive of the concern.
Do we in fact have confidence that 'budgetary constraints' would be an
acceptable defence if a tree inspected in a walk-by caused harm (if arising
from a defect only visible from the unseen side of the tree)?

Hi Julian
Though I appreciate you taking the time to make your comments.
Unfortunately, as I started to go through them point by point, and began to
work on a reply, it dawned on me that right from the first sentence there's
almost nothing you've written with which I agree. On some points you're
demonstrably wrong. And even on the few marginal ones, I struggle to see the
value to either of us, or the forum, of trying to pursue this. In my draft
to date reply I'm contesting almost every line you've typed and it's just
going to end up with one of the those threads where I quote you 10 times and
reply, and everyone will lose the will to live. Sorry.
Cheers
Acer ventura
