Road Map to reform: Deregulation (Ambler & Boyfield 2005) is one of Ambler's reports published by the Adam Smith Institute it argues that EU rules should be applied equally across all member countries, utilities should no longer have to pick up the cost to consumers who cannot pay bills and small firms should have to deal with only one official on all aspects of business and workplace regulation. <ref> Critical Eye Website [ http://www.criticaleye.net/insight/details.phtml?id=90&login=c6cfffd124e8f6e97b3b851505d2493e Road Map to Reform: Deregulation] Last accessed 4th November 2007
