No, I'm not asking a question on your ruling, dubious as it may seem. I'm asking a question of the officials here as to whether they consider themselves to be bound by this memorandum of agreement. Mr. Woodworth raised the issue when we were debating a previous clause, and I think it's a legitimate question to ask officials whether they see themselves as bound by this particular memorandum of agreement.
It has nothing to do with your ruling, however inadequate that might be.
