SO: It seem to refer to "governmentally authorized regulatory authority,..." which is appropriately noted in the section referenced.</p>
<p dir="ltr">For clarity (better put, "for avoidance of doubt"), I don't think see any lack of clarity to resolve here.</p>

<p dir="ltr"><span class="">> If we want to save the last clause, things get more complicated. It could be changed to say "nothing in the preceding sentence should be construed to suggest that it does have such authority." Now it's clear that "such authority" refers to "governmentally authorized regulatory authority." It could also be changed to say "nothing in the preceding sentence should be construed to suggest that it does have authority to impose governmentally authorized regulations." However, I'm not sure that either of these are particularly useful statements or add any clarity to the situation. (The first is modestly more useful than the second.)<br>
