    Report these idiots to the PCG. They are the ones who helped negotiate this huge own goal of an opt out and worse still they have their heads in the sand simply won't admit that things like this happen or that they are a problem.

    Also go directly to the client and explain to them how the Agency Conduct Regulations protect both the client and the contractor in their dealings with agencies and it is in their best interests if their contractor's DO NOT opt out.
    Yes, it's been an expensive couple of days!
