DELEGATE CARSON: May I ask you if you would
accept an amendment to strike out of the last sentence
the words starting with "or" and going on "or of any
other principal department of the executive branch", and
insert therefor the words "but shall be an independent
officer of the state governor."
THE CHAIRMAN: Delegate Morgan.
DELEGATE MORGAN: I think that is implicit in
the fact that the comptroller is an elected official. He
is not resironsible to any other person in the state gov-
ernment. He is only responsible to the electorate.
THE CHAIRMAN: Delegate Carson.
DELEGATE CARSON: Delegate Morgan, I don't want
to debate linguistics or detail at all. Would you have
any objection if the Style Committee were to add such
language in here to clean it up?
THE CHAIRMAN; Delegate Morgan.
DELEGATE MORGAN: I would have no objection to
the Style Committee doing that if they thought it would
change the meaning of it and I don't think it does change
the meaning of it myself. |
