It seems what you have done is, in your amendment,
you have picked out one specific item that you think satisfies
your conscience. It seems to me if we go that way, we start
to legislate, because it seems to me there are other duties
and if you start to delineate these duties, there are other;
perhaps the Governor should not be able to give to the
Lieutenant Governor and, as a matter of principle, in theor),
you either leave it entirely up to the Governor or go through
the whole exercise of determining what authority should be
delegated. I am going to ask the Chairman of the Committee
if he will yield for a question, too, because I hope maybe
we might be able to work this out. I wonder if you would
agree that a possible substitute for your amendment, and I
haven't drawn it, would be to, in effect, authorize the
legislature to delineate those specific powers which cannot
be delegated by the Governor to the Lieutenant Governor, anc
that could be done by using the expression at the appropriate
place, unless prohibited by law.
Would you have any objection to that approach, if
the Chairman of the Committee did not object?
THE CHAIRMAN: Delegate Chabot.
