WILLIAM DONALD SCHAEFER, Governor

return the employee to work, and increases from 10 to 15 days
from the date of notification the time in which a hearing may be
requested on the plan.

House Bill 888, which was passed by the General Assembly and
signed by me on May 27, 1988, accomplishes the same purpose.
Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign Senate Bill 752.

Sincerely,

William Donald Schaefer

Governor
