DELEGATE BOYER: We found, frankly, much to

2

my amazement, that our recommendation of GP-9 dealing

5

only with common law evidently did not go far enough in

4

order to protect the implementation of the various

5

statutory and constitutional concepts that we would like

6

to have incorporated in future case law and in the future

7

Constitution.

8

GP-9 dealing only with ancient statutory law

9

was the result, the finished product, of the General

10

Provisions Committee hearing many witnesses, including

11

judges on the Court of Appeals.

12

But on the Transitory Committee, particularly

13

the Local Government Committee, I had some problems that

14

did not fit in with our Recommendation GP-9 and this was

15

sort of like opening Pandora's box, and there were many

16

other matters that then flowed into the conversation that

17

evidently GP-9 which was our intention to cover everything,

18

did not.

19

For that reason we recommend for your

20

consideration the Amendment A on GP-9 and ask that it

21

be considered because we feel it to be more encompassing
