I've never seen a regulation that says that.
Care to share?

There are conditions that regulate when and why they can say no, but only within the written rules, not at the simple whim of an officer.

Wouldn't this memo have to follow the law, or do you feel F&W doesn't have to follow written rules, that they can just make things up as they go along even if their actions are illegal?

As to the bureaucracy comment, I see you don't understand what I was getting at. Colour me unsurprised. (Yah, I'm grumpy and need to get out.... )
