Keep section 1. 127 on the question of 4 4a, the right of private plaintiff to receive 50 of civil penalties. I would remove. Re i would remove that provision. It would be in agreement with staff on that. On section 5 machine 5a, i would go back to the original language prohibiting commissioners and Board Members from fund raising for their appointing official. But not broadening to include necessarily any elected official. For section 6, i would propose a robust disclosure requirement encapsulated in section g. So for section 6, you would propose that we accept the staff recommendation on no,...

Is that we can only pass something that is identical to what the Ethics Commission passed.
