<br />Attorney Charles Matheson stated the Supreme Court has now received the matter
<br />of the District Record Case, and has ruled that each Director will remain a part
<br />of the Case. Christy noted that Director Irwin was excused by virtue of the fact
<br />that he is no longer a member of the Board, and asked whether his replacement
<br />will assume his responsibility. Mr. Matheson replied to the negative.
<br />
<br />'~r. Matheson stated he had attended a Legislative Committee on the Proposed
<br />Public Records Bill, and advised there seems to be quite a diversion of opinion
<br />r;.:lahve to the necessity of such Legislation, and what should be contained. He

<br />ion, while others feel that some must, of necessity, remain of a confidential nature.
<br />Mr. Mathe son stated the Committee will continue to hold Public Hearings on this
<br />matter, and he expects that a Bill of some type will be considered by either tbe
<br />ne~'"t Session of the Legislature-or the 47th General Assembly.
