The House assembled at 11:00 A.M.
Deliberations were opened with prayer by the Chaplain of the House of Representatives, the Rev. Dr. Alton C. Clark as follows:
Help us, good Lord, to do our very best in the challenges of this day. Cause us to use our God-given abilities for the welfare of Your people and altogether acceptable to You, making of ourselves "approved of God, workmen that need not to be ashamed." So as we seek what is right and then as we struggle to climb the ladder to success, God forbid that we should discover that "our ladder is leaning against the wrong wall." Make us as productive today as we dream of for tomorrow.
Enable us to hear and heed the wisdom of Your Word: "He that handles a matter wisely shall fine good; and he who trusts in the Lord, happy is he." (Proverbs 16:20) Amen.

Beg leave to report that they have duly and carefully considered the same and recommend:
That the same do pass with the following amendments:
Amend the bill, as and if amended, by striking all after the enacting words and inserting:
Amend title to conform.
/s/Thomas L. Moore /s/William D. Boan /s/H. Samuel Stilwell /s/H. Howell Clyborne /s/Darrell Jackson /s/James H. Hodges On Part of the Senate. On Part of the House.
Rep. HODGES explained the Free Conference Report.
Rep. G. BROWN spoke against the Free Conference Report.
Rep. HODGES moved to waive Rule 5.14, which was agreed to by a division vote of 103 to 1.
The Free Conference Report was adopted and a message was ordered sent to the Senate accordingly.
From what I have read and heard in the media, the Free Conference Report is superior to the House version of government restructure. The Report phases in the agency changes rather than requiring mass implementation on July 1, 1993. The Administrative Law Judge provision is much narrower. The Report does not create a layer of high-paid political appointees.
However, the Report does not contain a cohesive, sensible plan for restructure; there is no consistent philosophy of governance. Now we will truly have a "hodge-podge" government.
Further, this whole restructure issue misleads the public the current proposal purports to merge 72 agencies into 19. If I'm correct, somewhere between 38 and 41 of these "merged agencies" are professional occupation licensing agencies (POLA's). These POLA's do not cost the tax payers one dime. I'll bet restructure doesn't affect 25% of appropriated funds.
One good feature of the House bill was language that would have given agency managers more authority to run their agencies - to get resources where they can do the most good. This language is not in the Free Conference Report - I don't think.
In fact, none of us can be sure of what is in the Report. House members cannot get a copy of the Report. (It's about 1700 pages long.)
The House voted on the 699 page Senate plan without having the chance to read copies. Originally we were given less than 24-hours to study a 2500 page bill.
And that is the bottom line. H. 3546 is being called the most important legislation in 100 years. I cannot honestly say that I have read every bill I've voted for in my 7 years in the House, but I feel this is one I needed to study.
Rep. JOSEPH T. McELVEEN, JR.
After all considerations and feeling that restructuring cannot best serve the best interest of the people of South Carolina, I wish to be recorded as voting against it.
Rep. G. RALPH DAVENPORT, JR.
Mr. Speaker, Fellow House members, Ladies and Gentlemen, I rise today not to bore you but to make some final comments on the restructuring of state government in South Carolina.
To no surprise to anyone here, I have been, I am and will continue to oppose this restructured form of government for South Carolina, for it leads to a concentration of unchecked power in the Governor's Office of South Carolina. Regardless of who the Governor may be, it excludes the participation of South Carolinians in their government through service on state boards and commissions. It will encourage stop and go government each time a new Governor is elected. Simply put to the department heads from the new governor, dance to my music or you will be replaced. It will create another layer of bureaucracy which will not be accessible to the public. I guarantee that our efforts to grasp a brighter and more positive future will, at best, never exceed the reach of an eight-year gubernatorial term.
We do have problems in South Carolina state government and my question is, in this massive restructuring, what are we doing to solve the problems of teen pregnancy; high school drop-outs; decaying school buildings; unemployment; rundown and dilapidated school buses; inadequately funded mental retardation programs; job training programs; rural economic development; overcrowded prisons, and inadequate pay for our state employees? I submit to you today that in the 1993-94 Appropriation Bill, we have no pay increases for our state employees, but today we are voting on a restructuring plan that no one has been able to give an adequate estimate as to how much it will cost to implement, but in all probability, it will cost tens of millions of dollars.
I have observed over the last few years that people who have been appointed to the boards and commissions in this State were big campaign contributors. I wonder, under this new forum of restructured government, if the agency heads will be men and women of outstanding capacity, character and qualifications, or will they be the people who contributed the most or worked the hardest in a special campaign, or maybe the newly formed and restructured government will be like Washington where too often these people are chosen not because of their ability but because of their party affiliation and activity.
The South Carolina Department of Highways and Public Transportation is one agency that will undergo much change. Given the fact that I live in the Third Judicial Circuit which is composed of Sumter, Clarendon, Williamsburg and Lee Counties, which now has an opportunity every sixteen years to have a sitting member on the Highway Commission (PAUSE) You no doubt noticed my moment of silence because under this newly formed restructured government, I can guarantee those of you in this body who represent small rural counties, your county will never have representation on the South Carolina Highway Commission again. Each one of us here today has the honor of serving 28,000 South Carolinians. Some of these 124 House Districts are very compact and others are sparsely populated which have tremendous geographical areas. I say this to simply state that these rural districts deserve representation on the State Highway Commission just as much as the urbanized areas.
Under the newly restructured plan for the Highway Department, each Congressional District will get one seat and the Governor has the right to appoint the seventh commissioner. No rural South Carolina counties or areas will enjoy representation again on the Highway Commission.
The original restructuring commission study did state, and I give them credit for their honesty, that there would be no real savings of dollars with this type of government. I submit to you today that the people of this State are being sold a pig in a poke.
Yes, the lives and property of the citizens of South Carolina are in jeopardy; for today this General Assembly will help pass into law the most sweeping changes to our state government since the end of Reconstruction. Yes, a host of progressives will combine many of its agencies, boards and commissions which have done the work of our state government over the years, and a institute a so-called more efficient professional system.
How do I explain to all the citizens of Lee and Sumter Counties that removing them from the governing boards and commissions and having everyone who worked for the State report to the Governor's Office that I am giving government back to the people. Someone back home is going to say "Grady, that just doesn't make sense." How can I explain that it is more accountable if everyone reports to the Governor's Office who is only accessible once in eight years. The real question is not can these state agency heads make The State paper happy, but are our services open, accessible and convenient for the public?
The real thesis behind this restructuring of South Carolina state government is that the good ole' boys, the amateur private citizens, who have filled our boards and commissions, are not good enough to oversee the work of our State anymore. The idea is that professional bureaucrats will be able to do a much better job and to react more quickly in an emergency situation. The idea is that professionals will be able to spend less of the taxpayer's money and give better service because of their training and expertise in political areas. Poor South Carolina, that for all these years we have managed to pay our bills and keep an enviable credit rating under the direction of these amateurs. Wouldn't it be so much better if we had had the benefit of professional managers just like the federal government in Washington, DC? Wouldn't it have been so much better if we had had the benefit of a strong state executive able to cram a new program down the General Assembly's throat, if necessary? Wouldn't South Carolina be so much better off if we, too, had the benefits that come with a rising deficit and a government out of control of those amateurs, the taxpayers? The definition of an amateur is one who does something for the love of it rather than for personal gain. That doesn't, of course, mean that all amateurs are perfect, but the majority in state government are concerned with the good of the State and their constituents. Many actually loss money by their service on these boards and commissions which are taking such a drubbing from the reformers. Need I say more? I rest my case. Thank you.

No. 230
The report of the Committee of Conference having been adopted by both Houses, and this Bill having been read three times in each House, it was ordered that the title thereof be changed to that of an Act, and that it be enrolled for ratification.
The COMMITTEE OF FREE CONFERENCE, to whom was referred:
H. 3610, General Appropriations Bill for Fiscal Year 1993-94
Beg leave to report that they have duly and carefully considered the same and recommend:
That the same do pass with the following amendments:
Amend the bill, as and if amended, by striking all after the enacting words and inserting:
Rep. BOAN explained the Free Conference Report.
Rep. BOAN continued speaking.
Rep. HODGES explained the Free Conference Report.
Rep. BOAN explained the Free Conference Report.
Rep. McELVEEN spoke against the Free Conference Report.
Rep. KENNEDY spoke upon the Free Conference Report.
Rep. BOAN explained the Free Conference Report.
Rep. BOAN moved to waive Rule 5.14, which was agreed to by a division vote of 89 to 0.
The question then recurred to the adoption of the Free Conference Report.
Rep. WALKER demanded the yeas and nays, which were not ordered.
The Free Conference Report was adopted by a division vote of 85 to 12 and a message was ordered sent to the Senate accordingly.
Despite my great respect for Mr. Boan and members and staff of the House Ways and Means Committee, I cannot vote for the General Appropriations Bill. Here are three primary reasons:
(1) Giving a taxpayer who has lost his case before the Tax Commission a $200,000 tax credit is wrong and sets a dangerous precedent. Would we do this for an individual taxpayer who felt he should have gotten a deduction? Each year the Supreme Court rules on a number of cases where taxpayers feel they were wrongfully required to pay their taxes. Must we do away with this appeals process? How effective are you if you can't get this treatment for your constituent?
(2) We are spending $65 million more than we were told we had to spend when the House was considering the Appropriations Bill. Some of this money, derived by utilizing a loophole in the federal Medicaid rules, is being spent on recurring obligations. What happens if this loophole is closed; or, worse yet, closed retroactively; or if our plan just doesn't work. Seems to me this is how we lost our AAA credit rating.
(3) The $1.00 tax on "adult videos" seeks to benefit from something that is illegal in many communities. How can a video store operator know which movies to charge the tax on--unless the Tax Commission reviews every video in the store?
We should not "balance" our budget on such tenuous revenues. If we can get the $65 million from Washington, fine--but don't spend it. I'm afraid this budget invites shortfalls again unless the economy picks up. The bill also passes about $200,000 in expenses to my county for incarceration of juveniles. The House Bill delayed implementation of this requirement until a statewide plan for detention centers was in effect.
Rep. JOSEPH T. McELVEEN, JR.
I voted against H-3610, General Appropriations Bill, because it includes a section which amends the S.C. Code of Laws to give a retroactive tax break to one industry in South Carolina in the amount of $200,000. I disagree with this action in principle; it sets a bad precedent; and I cannot in good conscience be a party to passing such irresponsible legislation.
We are also again paying recurring expenses with one time money (the Medicaid windfall). This is also irresponsible and is the type of activity that caused us to lose our triple A credit rating.
For these reasons, I feel that I must reluctantly vote against the Appropriations Bill.
Rep. TIMOTHY C. WILKES
District # 41
Because I am opposed to this form of restructuring state government, which is incorporated in the budget, I wish to be recorded as voting against the Appropriations Bill.
Rep. G. RALPH DAVENPORT
Rep. TUCKER moved that the Committee of Conference on the following Bill be resolved into a Committee of Free Conference and briefly explained the Conference Committee's reasons for this request.
H. 3135 -- Reps. Corning, Quinn, Hallman, Cato, Jaskwhich, Shissias, Harrison, Harrell, Waites, Littlejohn, A. Young, Vaughn, Haskins, J. Bailey, Walker, Simrill, Robinson, D. Wilder, J. Wilder, G. Brown, Graham, Kirsh, Davenport, Stone, Meacham and Wells: A BILL TO AMEND ACT 610 OF 1990, RELATING TO THE JUDICIARY, SO AS TO EXTEND THE LIMIT ON DIRECT SOLICITING OF MEMBERS OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY FOR VOTES FOR JUDICIAL CANDIDATES BEFORE THE QUALIFICATIONS OF ALL CANDIDATES FOR THE OFFICE ARE DETERMINED BY THE JUDICIAL SCREENING COMMITTEE TO INDIRECT SOLICITATION, TO DEFINE INDIRECT SOLICITATION AND PROVIDE EXCEPTIONS TO REQUIRE THE COMMITTEE TO CONSIDER VIOLATIONS OF THIS SECTION WHEN CONSIDERING A CANDIDATE'S QUALIFICATIONS; AND TO DESIGNATE SECTION 6, PART IV, ACT 610 OF 1990 AS SECTION 2-19-70, CODE OF LAWS OF SOUTH CAROLINA, 1976.
The yeas and nays were taken resulting as follows:
Those who voted in the affirmative are:
Alexander, M.O. Alexander, T.C. Allison Anderson Askins Bailey, G. Bailey, J. Barber Baxley Beatty Boan Breeland Brown, H. Byrd Cato Chamblee Cooper Corning Cromer Elliott Fair Felder Gamble Govan Graham Hallman Harrell Harrelson Harris, J.

Smith, R. Spearman Stoddard Stone Stuart Thomas Trotter Tucker Vaughn Waldrop Wells Whipper Wilder, D. Wilder, J. Wilkes Wilkins Williams Wofford Worley Young, A.
Those who voted in the negative are:
So, the motion to resolve the Committee of Conference into a Committee of Free Conference was agreed to.
The Committee of Conference was thereby resolved into a Committee of Free Conference, the SPEAKER appointed Reps. TUCKER, CORNING and THOMAS to the Committee of Free Conference and a message was ordered sent to the Senate accordingly.

Beg leave to report that they have duly and carefully considered the same and recommend:
Strike all after the enacting words and insert:
SECTION 1. Section 11A.1 of Part 1 of the annual general Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 1993- 1994, an act bearing the ratification number _____, (bill number H. 3610), is further amended to read:
Part I, Section 11A.1
The amount appropriated in this section for "Defense of Indigents" shall be apportioned among counties in accord with Section 17-3-10, 1976 Code, but on a per capita basis and based upon the official United States Census for 1990. The level of contribution of each county as of July 1, 1992, must be maintained. No county shall be permitted to contribute less money than the amount the county contributed as of July 1, 1992. Within the amount of money established for indigent defense services, the State shall set aside at least $1,675,000 $2,750,000 (Death Penalty Trial Fund) annually exclusively for use of the defense in capital cases pursuant to Section 16-3-26 of the 1976 Code, and for the expenses of the operation of Office of Indigent Defense. The State also shall set aside $1,000,000 annually to pay fees and expenses of private counsel appointed in non-capital cases pursuant to Section 17-3-50 (Conflict Fund). Of the funds generated from the surcharge imposed pursuant to Section 14-1-213 of the 1976 Code, one half must be deposited into the Death Penalty Trial Fund for the defense of capital cases until the fund reaches $1,675,000. and the application fee provided in Section 17-3-30(B), on a monthly basis, 50% must be deposited into the Death Penalty Trial Fund, 30% must be deposited into the Conflict Fund until each of these funds has received the required level of deposit, and remaining funds each month must be apportioned among the counties pursuant to Section 17-3-10. When either the Death Penalty Trial Fund or the Conflict Fund has been fully funded, the monthly revenue being set aside for that fund will be directed to the other fund until it is completely funded. Upon complete funding of both the Death Penalty Trial Fund and the Conflict Fund, all revenue collected pursuant to Section 14-1-213 and Section 17-3-30(B) must be apportioned among the counties. At the end of each fiscal year, any funds remaining in the Conflict Fund shall be treated as provided in Section 17-3-330(B). At the end of each fiscal year any leftover funds shall carryover to the next fiscal year. All applications for the payment of fees and expenses in capital cases shall be applied for from this fund the Death Penalty Trial Fund which shall be administered by the Office of Indigent Services Defense. All applications for the payment of fees and expenses of private counsel or expenses of public defenders pursuant to Section 17-3-50 shall be applied for from the Conflict Fund administered by the Office of Indigent Defense. If all funds in either the Death Penalty Trial Fund or the Conflict Fund are exhausted before the end of the fiscal year, any outstanding awards of attorney fees or expenses shall be the obligation of the county.
SECTION 2. Section 16-3-26 of the 1976 Code of Laws, as last amended by the annual general Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 1993- 1994 bearing ratification number ____ (bill number H. 3610) is further amended to read:
"Section 16-3-26. (A) Whenever the solicitor seeks the death penalty he shall notify the defense attorney of his intention to seek such penalty at least thirty days prior to the trial of the case. At the request of the defense attorney, the defense attorney shall be excused from all other trial duties ten days prior to the term of court in which the trial is to be held.
(B) Whenever any person is charged with murder and the death penalty is sought, the court, upon determining that such person is unable financially to retain adequate legal counsel, shall appoint two attorneys to defend such person in the trial of the action. One of the attorneys so appointed shall have at least five years' experience as a licensed attorney and at least three years' experience in the actual trial of felony cases, and only one of the attorneys so appointed shall be the Public Defender or a member of his staff. In all cases where no conflict exists, the public defender or member of his staff shall be appointed if qualified. If a conflict exists, the court shall then turn first to the contract public defender attorneys, if qualified, before turning to the Office of Indigent Defense.
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the court shall order payment of all fees and costs from funds available to the Office of Indigent Defense for the defense of indigents. Any attorney appointed shall be compensated at a rate not to exceed fifty dollars per hour for time expended out of court and seventy-five dollars per hour for time expended in court. Compensation shall not exceed twenty-five thousand dollars and shall be paid from funds available to the Office of Indigent Defense for the defense of indigents represented by court-appointed, private counsel.
(C) (1) Upon a finding in ex parte proceedings that investigative, expert, or other services are reasonably necessary for the representation of the defendant whether in connection with issues relating to guilt or sentence, the court shall authorize the defendant's attorneys to obtain such services on behalf of the defendant and shall order the payment, from funds available to the Office of Indigent Defense, of fees and expenses not to exceed twenty-five hundred twenty thousand dollars as the court shall deem appropriate. Payment of such fees and expenses may be ordered in cases where the defendant is an indigent represented by either court-appointed, private counsel or the public defender.
(2) Provided upon exhaustion of the funds provided through the Office of Indigent Defense, any outstanding awards of attorney fees or expenses shall be the obligation of the county.
(D) Payment in excess of the hourly rates and limit in subsection (B) or (C) is authorized only if the court certifies, in a written order with specific findings of fact, that payment in excess of the rates is necessary to provide compensation adequate to ensure effective assistance of counsel and payment in excess of the limit is appropriate because the services provided were reasonably and necessarily incurred. Upon a finding that timely procurement of such services cannot await prior authorization, the court may authorize the provision of and payment for such services nunc pro tunc.
(E) After completion of the trial, the court shall conduct a hearing to review and validate the fees, costs, and other expenditures on behalf of the defendant.
(F) The Supreme Court shall promulgate guidelines on the expertise and qualifications necessary for attorneys to be certified as competent to handle death penalty cases.
(G) The Office of Indigent Defense shall maintain a list of death penalty qualified attorneys who have applied for and received certification by the Supreme Court as provided for herein. In the event the court appointed counsel notifies the chief administrative judge in writing that he or she does not wish to provide representation in a death penalty case, the chief administrative judge shall advise the Office of Indigent Defense which shall forward a name or names to the chief administrative judge for consideration. The appointment power is vested in the chief administrative judge. The Office of Indigent Defense shall establish guidelines as are necessary to ensure that attorneys' names are presented to the judges on a fair and equitable basis taking into account geography and previous assignments from the list. Efforts shall be made to present an attorney from the area or region where the action is initiated."
SECTION 3. Section 17-3-30 of the 1976 Code of Laws, as last amended by the annual general Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 1993- 1994 bearing ratification number ____ (bill number H. 3610) is further amended to read:
"Section 17-3-30. (A) A person to whom counsel has been provided shall execute an affidavit that he is financially unable to employ counsel and that affidavit shall set forth all his assets. If it appears that the person has some assets but they are insufficient to employ private counsel, the court, in its discretion, may order the person to pay these assets to the defender corporation of the county or counties wherein he is being represented or, if a defender corporation does not exist therein, to the judicial department of the State of South Carolina.
(B) A twenty-five dollar application fee for public defender services must be collected from every person who executes an affidavit that he is financially unable to employ counsel. The person may apply to the clerk of court or other appropriate official for a waiver or reduction in the application fee. If the clerk or other appropriate official determines that the person is unable to pay the application fee, the fee may be waived or reduced. The clerk of court or other appropriate official shall collect the application fee imposed by this section and remit the proceeds to the state fund on a monthly basis. The monies must be deposited in an interest-bearing account separate from the general fund and used only to provide for indigent defense services. The monies shall be administered by the Office of Indigent Defense. The monies collected pursuant to this provision shall be used for the payment of court-appointed private counsel to represent indigent defendants and the fees and expenses court-ordered in the defense of all indigents whether they are represented by the public defender corporation of the county or court-appointed private counsel. However, each county public defender corporation shall receive an annual appropriation from this fund.
(C) Sufficient funds shall be set aside from allocations provided for the defense of indigents to provide for adequate screening of applications for indigent assistance to ensure the applicant is qualified."
SECTION 4. Section 17-3-330 of the Code of Laws of 1976, as last amended by the annual general Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 1993 - 1994 bearing ratification number ____ (bill number H. 3610) is further amended to read:

(5) report annually to the General Assembly on the indigent defense system.
(B) On or about June 30, 1994 and every year thereafter on that date, if the Office of Indigent Defense determines, after taking into consideration all outstanding obligations against the fund for payment of attorney fees and expenses in non-capital cases, that unexpended funds remain, these funds shall be rolled over into the fund for payment of attorney fees and expenses in capital cases; provided however this shall occur only in the event the funds in the capital fund have been exhausted at that time. This fund shall at no time exceed $2.75 million dollars. "
SECTION 5. Section (I) of Section 45, Part II of the annual general Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 1993 - 1994 (bill number H. 3610) bearing ratification number ___ is further amended as follows:
(I) This section takes effect July 1, 1993, and the ten percent surcharge on criminal fines and the public defender services' application fee shall be collected for every offense occurring on or after July 1, 1993.
