Sandstone removal for paving

Hi all, I have been excavating an area on my backyard in preparation to lay pavers as an outdoor entertaining area. After removing the top layer of grass, I have hit a large slab of sandstone as shown in the attached images. 

 

My question is this, do I/should I remove the sandstone down to the lowest level so everything is the one level? Or can I leave it and 'fill in' the lower areas with road base and bedding sand?
