8. Actions authorised in the laws
The Secretary drew attention to those who argued that where an action was
stated in the laws (or regulations) to be authorised, other actions if not
expressly forbidden were also legitimate. The Committee ruled that this is
not so; the Scope of the Laws states that the laws define correct procedure
and anything not specified in the laws is, therefore, 'extraneous' and it
may be deemed an infraction of law if information deriving from it is used
in the auction or the play.


I think the clause "may be deemed an infraction" is all important!

forbidden were also legitimate. The Committee ruled that this is not so; ...

        Of course, if Herman chooses to delude himself that this does
not apply to representing as an agreement what is not an agreement,
why should I trouble myself with his specious argument?
