    Remote transmission: Does this rule eliminate phone appearances? If so, perhaps it should be reconsidered because telephone is sometimes the only way a participant can appear.

    There must be a section regarding training of these clerks. Clerks cannot perform this job without some legal knowledge of procedural rules. At a minimum, there should be evaluation criteria that must be met. Is this addressed somewhere else?
