Gaunty,
I know that I see things more simply than you and Creamy, but if someone really made an error in filing the Bill why didn't he tiptoe down and remove it? It is I understand that easy. Far easier and far less embarrassing than amending it later I would have thought. I'm afraid I think that you are being finessed. Whether that is with or without your consent I cannot say.
Creamy,
The idea that CASA is meekly sitting there dealing whatever cards they are dealt is as preposterous as some of Gaunty's self backpatting. My opinion, (and the opinion of Lord Raglan I think, maybe Jefferson) is
"All bureaucracies tend towards tyranny"
