I want to know the answer to the following question:
What specific institution did Barnes indicate could not be a rival of the Royal Institute?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Barnes commented that the Act's purpose was not protecting the architectural profession, and that the legitimate interests of the profession were best served by the (then) architectural associations in which some 80 per cent of those practising architecture were to be found.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: no
