The Honorable R. Clayton Mitchell, Jr.
Speaker of the House of Delegates
State House
Annapolis, Maryland 21401

Dear Mr. Speaker:                                                                ' .

In accordance with Article. II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, I have today
vetoed House Bill 30.

This bill would expand the circumstances under which an equity court may grant a
petition for visitation rights for a grandparent to be able visit their grandchild.

Senate Bill 612, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me on May 11,
1993, accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign House
Bill 30.

Sincerely,

William Donald Schaefer

Governor
