Representative   Davies   OBJECTED   for   the   purpose   of

provision. Since  the three-quarter-vote provision  failed in                                                                   
the Senate, it was not reflected  in the title. This required

the CBR  to the Department  of Revenue for investment  costs,                                                                   
and $100  thousand dollars for  supplemental funding  for the

Representative John  Davies observed that since  the CBR vote                                                                   
failed that, the only valid CBR  vote would be the one in the

could be  valid in either  bill. Representative  Davies noted                                                                   
that the  vote is needed on  the same vehicle on  both sides.                                                                   
Co-Chair Mulder responded that  either bill could be returned

Representative Davies continued his OBJECTION.
