But there are a lot of words to describe telling people that what they are doing is okay when you wrote the very law that says it is not. Depending on how extreme your viewpoint on the matter is, those words range from incompetent to corrupt. In this case, I suspect the former is closer to reality.

Again, my point isn't about whether the law was contravened though. Its a ridiculous law because the parties have no way of knowing whether they have contravened anything. The part about an employee claiming these events on their expense accounts is completely out of their control. Clearly if they provide advice and say "you can just do this..." then it's a different story. I have no idea how that could be proven though.
