In fact, it happened as a result of the creation of the socalled unified information policy, but i honestly do not see the sense in this unified information policy for the last couple of years, but the question of what we should do with it is a little off topic here, because we have nothing to do with we cannot do this, only express our opinion, the authorities remain consistent in repeating that the telethon is necessary for them.

Rao. She is the administrator of that Regulatory Affairs for everybody in this room and in this town commonly known. That is a lingo. This is reminding me of one of the first events i ever did here at bookings. I hosted eight years ago. It was then the administrator. For one of the first events. There was a group of protesters out front one of him was wearing a full on costume with the trashcan assigned and face sign. I think it was him. They were singing a very creatively written a song. That was a play on oscars famous song. I will say it was effective because without that i would never have remembered the disposal rule. There you go.

It does highlight a serious point which is that the job of the administrator is already controversial and its frequently contentious. They oversee the regulatory process for the executive agencies. Its responsible for vetting the agencys tallies and the cost of f

For everybody in this town, commonly known as oira. Her appearance today is reminding me of one of the first events i ever did here at brookings. I hosted, it was probably eight years ago, the oira administrator. I was a little bit nervous, i was Walking Around outside getting warmed up, and there was a group of protesters out front, one of home was wearing a full on oscar the grouch costume with a trashcan and a sign. Were singing a very creatively written song called oscarsash, a play on famous song i love trash. I will say, it was effective, because without that i would never have remembered the coal ash disposal rule. Guardedly, there is nothing so exciting happening outside the room today, which is well enough. The story does highlight a serious point, which is that the job of oira administrator is almost always controversial and fr
