Joseph Betar 13:54 Share Yeah, we could open this up. Has it been introduced? Motion and seconded, just so we could talk about it.
Joseph Betrus, Jr. 15:09 Share I've had some discussions with my colleagues here on this. We all seen what we did during the budget season. We all agree that I think, you know, if there's a— I've been in favor of the committee system from the beginning, and we never had the votes to pass it. I think that when we've seen how it worked, I think everybody kind of agrees that you should have some sort of a committee system. That's just my opinion. And the other thing is I know there was talk that— I don't know if it was amended before in these rules. I would like to make sure that we don't have where there has to be a piece of legislation before we could call a meeting, because, I mean, I— not that I got burned, but a couple of times I just wanted to have a meeting and I took, you know, something from Herkimer on the homeless and different stuff, and it comes out that I you know, was all in favor of that when I just wanted to have a meeting to see what we could do, um, to try to fix it. So is, is that in these rules? Because that's one thing I would like amended about— we can have a meeting at any time that doesn't have to have— it doesn't— you don't have to have legislation and committee to call a meeting.
