COPS - Unsolicited Decision Message

Hello
    I am working on COPS ( rfc 2748 ) and have the following doubt.
 
All Request Messages going from PEP to PDP have a unique Handle. PEP is supposed to ensure this uniqueness for the TCP connection with the PDP. For all solicited Decisions from PDP to PEP  Handle of the corresponding Request Message is sent.
My question is: What is the Handle for Unsolicited Decision Message from PEP to PDP ?
 
From the RFC what I make out is that PDP doesnt keep any track of Handle. It simply performs comparison to find the context of incoming message. So how does it decide which Handle to use?
