Presentation

0:00 → 1:20(1m 20s)

Chair (unnamed) entered corrections into the record: the Senate confirms the governor's appointees but does not confirm industry appointees to the plant board; contrary testimony that the plant board ‘operated without oversight’ was incorrect because any agency rule goes to the governor and then to the legislature for review and possible veto. Chair requested correcting the record.
