We have been reasonable; in this instance we will not be unreasonable and will explain why we will not support it. The government believes that the appropriate instrument for regulating an employment service provider is in the government’s contract with the employment service provider. The discretion, as articulated in the amendment, is contained in the contract: the appropriate place for it to be. It exists, but it exists in the contract. We will not be supporting your amendment.
