Answer:
c. May file a qui tam suit in connection with an FFCA case.
Explanation:
The False Claims Act, also known as anti fraud law, (31 U.S.C. Sections 3729 through 3733) is considered to be the earliest qui tam law (which otherwise means "in the name of the King"), was first passed into law in 1863 and then later got amended in 1943 and 1986.
Hence, under the the False Claims Act, qui tam allows an individual or group of people (which are often referred to as whistle blower) with tenable proof of fraud against federal programs or contracts to sue the culprit on behalf of the United States Government. Thus, the government has the right to join or intervene in the action, however, should the government refused to join in the action, the whistleblower or the private plaintiff can proceed in the proceedings.
It is also pertinent to note that, a "qui tam" action can be filed in a federal district court in camera, under seal and in accordance to federal rules of civil procedure.
There are protection provisions provided for whistleblower under FFCA (Federal False Claims Act) and they are:
1. Reinstatement to work
2. Payment of double back pay
3. Compensation for any special damages such as cost of litigation process.

This could have a variety of impacts that this situation could have on the local market. Firstly, the introduction of a Chinese company would mean that there would more competition for the American solar power company which would then have to contend with the Chinese company for sales. They would then be in a race to bring the most affordable options to the consumers as well as new advances in the technology or greater service. This would mean that the consumers would benefit greatly from this situation as they would be getting better products and service for an affordable cost.
Also, both companies could have a working arrangement where they act as an oligopoly and dominate the solar power industry in that particular market. Although, more companies brings more competition, when there aren't a multiplicity of competitors, there is always the danger that the few businesses will band together and operate as one entity where they set specific prices, standards of service and technological advances introduced. They would only superficially be competing with each other. In this arrangement, the consumers would endure the same standard as having one entity dominating the market.
Another scenario would be where the American solar power company makes a superior product and as such would promote their products to the market as 'higher end' which would ensure they have a core and stable consumer base.
