The agenda was lengthy and varied. On Sunday, the Council considered a report of the Special Committee on Section Organization (SCOSO) which recommended substantial changes in the Section's committee structure. The Council approved the recommendation, with minor changes. I shall not describe the new struc- ture here, because you should have received by now a committee preference form which reflects the new structure. However, there is one significant change to which I want to call your attention. The Council voted to abolish the Division of State Ad- ministrative Law as presently constituted.

The purpose of this reorganization is to in- crease the Section's activities at the state level by seeking to integrate state matters into the overall work of the Section. Adopting a committee struc- ture for the Division, which has more than 150 members, would result in duplication of existing committees and would tend to segregate con- sideration of matters at the federal and state levels, rather than facilitating an interchange of views and experiences as to matters of common interest. Under the new structure, the field of state administrative law will continue to have a Council member who is primarily concerned with this field, but there will also be a separate com- mittee chairman who will have overall respon- sibility in this area, as well as vice-chairmen of several committees, who will be charged with responsibility in this area.
