LEGISLATIVE JOURNAL-HOUSE Mr. LUCYK. Mr. Speaker, back in 1968 the legislature appropriated approximately $3 million for the renovation of Locust Mountain State Hospital. Subsequent to that the administration talked the hoard of governors into not using that money and building a new hospital. The money has sat there over a period of about 12 years. The administration has neglected the hospital over these 12 years with no money being spent in renovations. What my amendment does is appropriate $7.8 million, based on the $3 million appropriated in 1968, based on infla- tion, so that the hospital could be renovated and, if necessary after renovations, turned hack to the local community. ANNOUNCEMENT BY SPEAKER The SPEAKER. 1 would like the members to listen to this announcement, particularly those members who are offering amendments to HB 1645. The amendments that have been prepared by the Legislative Reference Bureau in each instance carry a total figure for the budget in the amount of $55 million, $60 million, $65 million. The problem that the Parliamentarian and 1 have-and we have conferred with the majority and minority leaders-as each amendment is offered, this total will change. We are suggesting to those of you who are offering amendments that in each case the question be divided so that we exclude from the offering the total amount, and with the understanding of the House, as your amendments are offered, I will automat- ically divide that question. I will announce the division, but 1 suggest, do not be alarmed at my dividing the question on your amendments. It is a step that must necessarily be taken to be logical and consistent in the handling of the entire bill. PARLIAMENTARY INQUIRY Mr. RITTER. Mr. Speaker, parliamentary inquiry. The SPEAKER. The gentleman will state his point of parliamentary inquiry. Mr. RITTER. When we are all finished with the amendment process, at that point will someone offer an amendment for what would then he the total amount of the authorization? The SPEAKER. We have discussed that, Mr. Ritter, and the suggestion is that that can he done, or if we are interested in processing it, we can allow the bill as amended to speak for itself as to the total. We are 14 or I5 amendments away from having to make that decision, however. Mr. RITTER. All right, Mr. Speaker. Thank you. The SPEAKER. The Chair, in conference with the majority and minority leaders, the Parliamentarian, and the Legislative Reference Bureau, has made a determination that in the case of the capital budget, the amendments will be offered and the Legislative Reference Bureau will make such adjustments, where there is an area of conflict, as are necessary for the hill Representative offers his or her amendment, that there not be any need for extended debate as to why the amendment is needed. We are prepared to agree to that amendment, all of those that are listed currently as amendments to HB 1645 with just one exception. The massive amendment which is to be offered with regard to mass transit would be not handled in the same way hut rather discussed on the floor of this House of Representatives. But it would certainly curtail the necessity of long hours here this afternoon on HB 1645 and, too, HB 1687 if we could handle the amendments in that way - accept all the amendments without debate. The SPEAKER. The Chair thanks the gentleman. The Chair recognizes the minority leader. Mr. IRVIS. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Speaking for the Democratic Party, we agree with the majority leader, but if there is anyone who has an objection to a particular amendment-each amendment will be read; you will have them distributed-if there is anybody who ha. a specific objection, then that person should rise and object to it. Otherwise, I will announce that the amendment is agreed to, without debate, so that we may speed up this move, understanding that we are not accepting without debate the SEPTA - Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority - and the PAT - Port Authority Transit - amendments. They are too enormous for us to accept without debate, but all the others we will accept without debate unless there be objection. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The SPEAKER. The Chair thanks the gentleman. The question before the House is, will the House agree to the amendments offered by the gentleman from Schuylkill. Mr. Lucyk? On the question recurring, Will the House agree to the amendments?
