On the recordMay 6, 1998
Here is what the administration said. It said that even if a fresh look at INTELSAT and Inmarsat services, ordered hypothetically, were to allow the signatures and direct users to get a better deal, it is unlikely that consumers would benefit; and they said for the same reason that competition already exists at ``fresh look'' at INTELSAT and Inmarsat contracts, in those countries, is unlikely to benefit consumers significantly. It seems to me they were testifying against the use of ``fresh look,'' not for it.
