(technical title change)                                                      
                                                                               
There being no objection, it was so ordered.                                   
                                                                               
Representative Green moved that the House concur in the Senate                 
amendment to CSHB 50(FIN)(brf sup maj fld), thus adopting SCS                  
CSHB 50(FIN) am S, and recommended that the members vote no.

The question being: "Shall the House concur in the Senate amendment

And so, the House failed to concur in the Senate amendment, thus               
failing to adopt SCS CSHB 50(FIN) am S.                                        
                                                                               
The Chief Clerk was instructed to so notify the Senate and respectfully        
request it to recede.                                                          
                                                                               
In the event the Senate fails to recede from its amendment, the Speaker        
appointed the following members to a Conference Committee to meet              
with a like committee from the Senate to consider the above bills:

Representative Grussendorf
