Where you get your problems is where a board
|
|
2
|
had the power of establishing policies and so on, a board,
|
|
3
|
ond then you have a director of the organization, and that
|
|
4
|
is being changed gradually.
|
|
5
|
For instance, in the Department of Correction,
|
|
6
|
formerly the Commission of Correction, had the power to
|
|
7
|
establish policy and had great powers, and the law was
|
|
8
|
changed not long ago, and it is an advisory board, strictly
|
|
9
|
an advisory board now with the Commissioner of Correction
|
|
10
|
as the acting head of the department, of the operations in
|
|
11
|
our penal institutions, and that is gradually being done,
|
|
12
|
and I think it should be more widespread.
|
|
13
|
When you move into these areas, you get
|
|
14
|
violent opposition to changing the area. Calhoun Bond is
|
|
15
|
looking at me, but you get violent opposition to changing
|
|
16
|
it from a policymaking board to an advisory board, and the
|
|
17
|
executive is handicapped to some extent in administering the
|
|
18
|
responsibilities of his office in those particular areas
|
|
19
|
when that particular situation exists.

JUDGE ADKINS: You feel then that more boards
|
|
21
|
should be advisory?
