Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Just a short general comment. I've had a chance to look at recommendations and the contents of the report. I understand that the committee has worked hard and diligently to report on the work of the committee. I think it's important to note that when this Assembly came into office four years ago, Members got together and discussed and talked and decided on the committee structure. The major committees that we have been working with, accountability and oversight committee - that includes all the other Members -social programs and governance and economic development committees; two key committees that review the budgets and bills of each department. That was a creation based on a decision made by the new Members when we came here.

So I have no reason to think that sort of thing would not happen in the next Assembly and I just want to make it known that nothing suggested to me here is binding on the next Assembly. I know that when there are new Members mixed with old Members and starting out fresh in a new Assembly, I'm sure that the 15th Assembly Members would want to create the organizational system and committee system the way they see fit and the way they think would best meet their needs.

So while I agree with the basic findings of the committee report, as well as the recommendations, I just want to make sure that there's no suggestion that would preclude any new ideas and new suggestions from the Members of the new Assembly. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
