necessary to satisfy each member of the Committee that
|
2
|
he is making the right decision and that the final deci-
|
3
|
sion of this Committee with respect to its recommendation
|
4
|
to the Commission is a correct one.
|

|
I don't feel that the action that has been
|
6
|
taken by the Commission as a whole at this stage, being
|
7
|
merely a broad grant of authority, mandates one position
|
8
|
or the other as to how that broad grant of authority shall
|
9
|
be defined. I think it gives us an Indication of thinking
|
10
|
but nevertheless I don't think it binds us to take what-
|
11
|
ever point of view we may want to take on the matter.
|
12
|
As I see it again, it does really present three
|
13
|
possibilities. Whether the grant of authority emanating
|
14
|
from the constitution to the home rule unit shall be a
|
15
|
broad grant of any and all legislative powers in the same
|
16
|
sense of all residual powers resting in the States under
|
17
|
the Federal Constitution, or whether it will be a broad
|
18
|
grant defined specifically in the constitution as the
|
19
|
second alternative, or whether it will be a broad grant to
|
20
|
the Legislature to then go ahead and define as the Legis-
|
21
|
lature being the source of authority to the local home
|
 
|
rule unfit
