afforded by the rule.
DELEGATE CHABOT: May I ask the question with
regard to Rule 28(a). As I understand, the Committee on
General Provisions is required to report a schedule of
interim legislation where appropriate, and I suspect
that it is probable that the Committee cannot effectively
do its work until after the Convention has done a sub-
stantial part of its work on the parts of the Constitution.
Was the question of the status of such a schedule intended
to be also the subject of this November 17 time limit?
DELEGATE SCANLAN: Let me put it this way.
That issue was never presented to the Committee in the
terms that you have just stated it. I for one certainly
take the position that since the Committee on General
Provisions can hardly prepare a schedule if it has
nothing else before it, that obviously the rule was not
intended to reach them; but I think on the other hand,
you would not want to draft the rule with the general
exemption in favor of the Committee on General Provisions,
because they have other substantive work to do, too; so
I would suggest for the while that we leave the rule as
