call on the passage of the bill be considered the roll call on the             
effective date clause.  There being no objection, it was so ordered.           
                                                                               
Representative Green moved that the constitutional budget reserve fund         
appropriations (Article IX, Section 17(c), Constitution of the State of        
Alaska) be adopted.

And so, lacking the necessary 30 votes, the constitutional budget              
reserve fund  appropriations (Article IX, Section 17(c), Constitution of       
the State of Alaska) were not adopted and the new title appears below:

The Senate has adopted the Conference Committee with limited powers            
of free conference report (Senate journal page 1693).                          
                                                                               
The House later rescinded previous action in failing to adopt the              
constitutional budget reserve fund appropriations (Article IX, Section         
17(c), Constitution of the State of Alaska).
