delegate hugo.Del. Tim Hugo (R-Centreville): Mr. Speaker, house bill 1297 pertaining to the virginia's israeli advisory board, the virginia israeli advisory board has been trying to get more autonomy. It was the suggestion of the governor's office that we move it from the executive branch to the legislative branch. That bill accomplishes that. Trying to make sure we don't get involved in the ratio fight. Initially, they appointed seven from the house, seven were appointed from the senate. It increases it to ten house, ten senate, same ratio, just more members from the house -- more citizens from the house and senate are appointed, and the Chairman Shall be a Chairman And vice Chairman Appointed by the board, but the one change is the executive director will now be appointed by joint rules. I hope it would be the will of the body to adopt this conference report and go home. >> shall the conference report be adopted. Clerk which close the roll.
