We have all kinds of "Government control" of monopolies, securities, bank regulations, investment regulations, the list is endless. And the list doesn't mean it's a "bad thing", it would be a nightmare of a market place without controls!

In this case I just don't see where the Guv is trying to "control" or "manipulate" an industry, it's opening up an industry to greater competition. Gunner makes a valid point, giving "Joes Garage" access to basic information about a product doesn't mean "Joe" will be able to compete.
