DELEGATE RYBCZYNSKI: Mr. President, isn't it
true that as we have been working on the blue sheets,
section by section, first of all, we voted to amend. As
soon as we amended, or did not amend, we moved on to the
next amendment, or the next Minority Report, and then
finally, after all the amendments were in, you then asked
for a vote on the total recommendation. I believe this has
happened.
THE PRESIDENT: This is correct.
DELEGATE RYBCZYNSKI: Very frankly, I think a
lot of us were confused because the very next section
talks about eliminating the Comptroller's office, eliminat-
ing the Treasurer's office, the Attorney General's office;
and I honestly believe that very possibly a lot of people
were voting, thinking that they were to approve or dis-
approve the entire EB-I rather than just that first sentence,
and I sort of gathered this was sort of confirmed by my
discussions with the various people through dinnertime.
THE PRESIDENT: The Chair regrets if that was
the case. I tried to state very clearly that the vote was
on the adoption of Committee Recommendation 1.
