THE CHAIRMAN: Delegate P e nui man.
DELEGATE PENNIMAN: May 1 ask a
question of the Chairman just for infor-
mation?
THE CHAIRMAN: Delegate Penniman.
DELEGATE PENNIMAN: Is it nor-
mally true, Chairman Gallagher, that this
would be an act of the General Assembly
for both houses or would it normally be an
act of each house for its own?
THE CHAIRMAN: Delegate Gallagher.
DELEGATE GALLAGHER: I would be-
lieve that the way section 3.17a is written
one would expect that each house would
adopt a rule for itself rather than adopt
a general public law so, consequently, each
house would have to take individual action.
DELEGATE PENNIMAN: Would there
be any objection if in the Style Committee
it were phrased "each house shall"? This
would not be contrary to what we are do-
ing, would it?
DELEGATE GALLAGHER: In my opin-
ion it would be consistent with 3.17a as we
understand it.
