Deliberations were opened with prayer by the Chaplain of the House of Representatives, the Rev. Dr. Alton C. Clark as follows:
We thank You, Heavenly Father, for the unique opportunities of service which you have opened to us in our places of challenge. Take the good things we do and multiply them to the honor of Your holy Name. Overrule and bring to naught anything done amiss. And wherever our paths leads, make us patient in goodness, steadfast in service, and continuous in our discipleship. So in all places and on every occasion, use us for the welfare of our beloved State, and for the good of its citizens.
Be our never-failing Companion, and grant us Your peace, both now and always. Amen.
Pursuant to Rule 6.3, the House of Representatives was led in the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America by the SPEAKER.

March 10, 1992
Mr. Speaker and Members of the House:
I am hereby returning without my approval H. 4308, R-300, an Act:
TO AMEND ACT 197 OF 1991, RELATING TO THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS OF THE MARION COUNTY HOSPITAL DISTRICT, SO AS TO PROVIDE THAT TERMS OF THE COMMISSIONERS SHALL COINCIDE WITH THE HOSPITAL'S FISCAL YEAR.
This veto is based upon an opinion of the Attorney General's Office dated March 9, 1992 which states in concluding:
"The act bearing ratification number 300 of 1992 amends Act No. 197 of 1991 to provide that the terms of the commissioners of the Marion County Hospital District are to coincide with the hospital's fiscal year. Marion County Hospital District is a special purpose district located wholly within Marion County. See Ops. Atty. Gen. dated April 24, 1991 and March 24, 1977. Thus, H. 4308, R-300 of 1992 is clearly an act for a specific county. Article VIII, Section 7 of the constitution of the State of South Carolina provides that '[n]o laws of a specific county shall be enacted.' Acts similar to H. 4308, R-300 have been struck down by the South Carolina Supreme Court as violative of Article VIII, Section 7."
Yours sincerely,
Carroll A. Campbell, Jr.
Governor

Senior Counsel to the Governor

Dear Mr. Elam:
By your letter of March 3, 1992, you have asked for the opinion of this Office as to constitutionality of H. 4308, R-300 an act relative to the Board of Commissioners of the Marion County Hospital District. For the reasons following, it is the opinion of this Office that the Act is of doubtful constitutionality.
In considering the constitutionality of an act of the General Assembly, it is presumed that the act is constitutional in all respects. More over, such an act will not be considered void unless its unconstitutionality is clear beyond any reasonable doubt. Thomas v. Macklen, 186 S.C. 290, 195 S.E. 539 (1937); Townsend v. Richland County, 190 S.C. 270, 2 S.E.2d 777 (1939). All doubts of constitutionality are generally resolved in favor of constitutionality. While this Office may comment upon potential constitutional problems, it is solely within the province of this courts of the State to declare an act unconstitutional.
The act bearing ratification number 300 of 1992 amends Act No. 197 of 1991 to provide that the terms of the commissioners of the Marion County Hospital District are to coincide with the hospital's fiscal year. Marion County Hospital District is a special purpose district located wholly within Marion County. See Ops. Atty. Gen. dated April 24, 1991 and March 24, 1977. Thus, H. 4308, R-300 of 1992 is clearly an act for a specific county. Article VIII, Section 7 of the Constitution of the State of South Carolina provides that "[n]o laws for a specific county shall be enacted." Acts similar to H. 4308, R-300 have been struck down by the South Carolina Supreme Court as violative of Article VIII, Section 7. See Cooper River Parks and Playground Commission v. City of North Charleston, 273 S.C. 639, 259 S.E.2d 107 (1979); Torgerson v. Craver, 267 S.C. 558, 230 S.E.2d 228 (1976); Knight v. Salisbury, 262 S.C. 565, 206 S.E.2d 875 (1974).
Based on the foregoing, we would advise that H. 4308, R-300 would be of doubtful constitutionality. Of course, this Office possesses no authority to declare an act of the General Assembly invalid; only a court would have such authority.
Sincerely,
Patricia D. Petway
Assistant Attorney General

The SPEAKER stated that you could not amend it except in separate legislation solely for that purpose and he sustained the Point of Order and ruled the amendment and the section out of order.
In accordance with Section 8-13-700(B) of the S.C. Code, I abstained from voting on the below referenced bill or amendment because of a potential conflict of interest and wish to have my recusal noted for the record in the House Journal of this date.
Bill #: H. 4500 General Subject Matter: General Appropriation Bill, 1992-93.
Section #: 23, Part I. Subject Matter: USC.
The reason for abstaining on the above referenced legislation is:
A potential conflict of interest may exist in that an economic interest of myself, an immediate family member, or an individual or business with which I am associated may be affected in violation of S.C. Code Section 8-13-700(B).
Rep. IRENE K. RUDNICK
