WILLIAM DONALD SCHAEFER, Governor

H.B. 395

Dear Mr. Speaker:

In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, I have today
vetoed House Bill 395.

This bill would authorize the Motor Vehicle Administration to allow a motor home or
travel trailer dealer to dispose of travel trailers or motor homes held in inventory on the
date of the franchise termination notice.

Senate Bill 202, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me on May 27,
1993, accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign House
Bill 395.

Sincerely,

William Donald Schaefer

Governor
