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 1297.

This bill would generally revise the law relating to the organization, incorporation,
operation, dissolution, and transfer of stock under the Maryland Professional Service
Corporation Act.

Senate Bill 176, 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 1297.

Sincerely,

William Donald Schaefer

Governor
