DELEGATE CARSON: Mr. Chairman, I advocated and
voted in favor of the article, or the section, rather,
on natural resources. I did so in large part because
the way that section was worded and the way it passed
would permit the General Assembly to vary from area to
area within the state with regard to conservation and
natural resources.
As an item in point, for example, starting last
week the deer season began and you can now shoot two
deer in Dorchester County, I understand, while as to
the rest of the state, only one. The recognition that then
was a large deer population in that country, I think that
is a distinguishing factor between that section and this
proposed section.
As Dr. Winslow, I am also a consumer. I feel
these consumer protecting clauses should be passed, but I
suggest the constitutional provision here proposed
would add nothing whatsoever and may also detract from
the ability of the General Assembly to legislate in
this area. Therefore, I urge you to vote against this
proposed section.
