Comments:

One of the lines in the proposed regulations reads: "The proposed regulations prohibit bargaining over the exercise of those rights enumerated in chapter 71, including the right to determine mission, budget, organization, and internal security practices, and the right to hire, assign and direct employees, and contract out." I dont' agree with contractiong out for the simple fact that myself and individuals here are well capable of getting our jobs done with the mission in mind. From what I have learned from contracting people, the majority don't know anything about the job they are supposed to do, and people callling them for help, can't give the answers. Many of us here have military background and prior training and knowledge to do our jobs coming into civil service. And speaking for myself, I am very much into the mission and work that we do here.
