This bill is strictly in accordance with the responsibilities that we have in carrying out that duty that we have.

I say to the gentleman, ``Primarily because, whey you cut from 100 percent to 25 percent, you're gutting the very issue we're talking about.''
I understand that, and I did comment on that in my comments, that you come to another argument when you go into that. You lead to further litigation and dispute as to whether the offer has been reasonable or unreasonable, many other things…
Possibility. I say to the gentleman, ``I think you're just defeating loser pays.''
I just think, if the gentleman is not in favor of loser pays, of course he is not going to like this at all. But under the amendments that we have put into the bill, a lot of the sting of loser pays has been taken out already----
