2.24 Paragraph 2.9 above reports instances where the Department and the Independent Certifier found deficiencies in JLC Ltd's designs. Neither, however, had any power to compel either Laser or JLC Ltd to reconsider their proposals. Most notably, JLC Ltd continued building to its original design for achieving the most stringent temperature control requirements despite being aware of the Department's concerns. Only after failing to meet the output requirements in the otherwise completed laboratories, did JLC Ltd action changes along the lines suggested by the Department.
