Well I'm no lawyer, thankfully, but English is my mother tongue and if what you posted is the actual language I don't see such consultation as mandatory. The word "shall" is in reference to what the consultation will include rather than to whether the consultation must take place. The changes to the medicare proposed in 2003 had a provision co-sponsered by Sen Issakson (R GA) which, according to what I've heard, would have been mandatory. It was defeated. Of course we now know Sarah Palin was advocating such a provision for Alaska a recently as spring of 2008.
