                            DECISION AND ORDER
 
                         I.  Statement of the Case
 
    This matter is before the Authority under section 2429.1(a) of our
 regulations based on the parties' stipulation of facts.  The commplaint
 alleges that the Respondent violated section 7116(a)(1), (5) and (8) of
