3162 CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION OF MARYLAND [Jan. 3]

THE PRESIDENT: Delegate Boileau
votes Aye.

Has every other delegate voted? Does
any delegate desire to change his vote?

The Clerk will record the vote.

There being 107 votes in the affirmative
and 4 in the negative, Committee Recom-
mendations GP-7, GP-8, GP-9 and GP-12
as amended are adopted on second reading
and are referred to the Committee on
Style, Drafting and Arrangement.

The next item on the calendar is the
Report of the Committee on Style, Drafting
and Arrangement, S&D-14. This has to do
with Committee Recommendation LB-2 and
3 and GP-10.

The Chair recognizes — for what purpose
does Delegate Gallagher rise?

DELEGATE GALLAGHER: Parlia-
mentary inquiry.

Mr. President, among the recommenda-
tions 'Which we just considered in S&D-17
were portions of R&P-1 and LB-3 per-
taining to continuity of government during
emergency. As you put the question to the
Convention I think you restricted approval
to GP-7, GP-8, GP-9, GP-12.

THE PRESIDENT: I think so that
there will be no question about it, the
Chair should put the question again and
restate it in somewhat different form.

This is a restatement of the question on
which you just acted : The question arises
on the adoption of the Committee recom-
mendations as amended embraced in the
attachment to the Report of the Committee
on Style, Drafting and Arrangement
S&D-17. A vote Aye is a vote in favor of
the committee recommendations as amended
and contained in the attachment to that
report of the Committee on Style. A vote
No is a vote against.

Cast your votes.
Has every delegate voted?
Delegate Boileau.
DELEGATE BOILEAU: Yea.

THE PRESIDENT: Delegate Boileau
votes Yea.

Has every other delegate voted? Does
any delegate desire to change his vote?

The Clerk will record the vote.

There being 102 votes in the affirmative
and 1 in the negative, the motion is

carried and those portions of committee
recommendations contained in the attach-
ment to the Report of the Committee on
Style, Drafting, and Arrangement S&D-17
as amended are adopted on second reading
and referred to the Committee on Style,
Drafting and Arrangement.

Delegate Gallagher, I .think the Chair
overlooked, in calling for the item Com-
mittee Report S&D-14, the amendment that
you desired to make under suspension of
rules to Committee Report S&D-16 that
the Chair earlier had distributed.

Do you desire to make that at this time?

DELEGATE GALLAGHER: I do, Mr.
Chairman. That would be "IP'.

THE PRESIDENT: Very well.

The Chair incorrectly announced the
result of that last vote. It is 103 in the
affirmative, 1 in the negative. You already
all have the distributed Amendment II.
This will be Amendment No. 22.

Delegate Gallagher, does the Chair
understand you desire to move that the
vote by which Committee Recommendations
LB-1, LB-2, and LB-3, except with respect
to sections 3.03, 3.04, 3.14 and 3.19 and
3.23 were adopted on second reading be
reconsidered so that you may offer further
amendment to section 3.11; and that you
also move for a suspension of rules so that
the motion may be considered immediately?

DELEGATE GALLAGHER: I do, Mr.
President. I move suspension of the rules,
and I move that the approval given to the
designated sections be reconsidered for
the purpose of offering Amendment II.

THE PRESIDENT: Delegate Gallagher,
the Parliamentarian has a simpler way to
do this. He suggests you move to suspend
the offending rules so that you may offer
Amendment No. 22 to section 3.11.

DELEGATE GALLAGHER: I so move,
Mr. President.

THE PRESIDENT: Is there a second?
(Whereupon, the motion was seconded.)

THE PRESIDENT: This requires a roll
call vote.

Delegate Gallagher moves that the of-
fending rules be suspended so as to permit
him to offer Amendment No. 22 to section
3.11, and permit immediately consideration
thereof. All in favor of the suspension of
the rules, indicate by voting Aye.
