Madam President, I do not have a speech; I just have an announcement that I would like to make. I have placed on the desk of all Councilmembers a copy of our report from the Telecommunications Policy Advisory Committee, and some of you may remember that this commission was established by Mayor Rendell in 1996 as a result of some public hearings that I convened back in SPEECHES 1995 on telecommunications and its impact on the City of Philadelphia. And the TPAC program is headed by Carol Smith, the executive director of the Workforce 2000 Advisory Committee. I want to thank you for your support of TPAC and ask for your continued support of this worthwhile program. We are moving forward, and if you read the executive summary, it looks like it's just documentation, supportive documentation in the book, but the executive summary will outline some of the many programs implemented by this group, and we would like to have it continued. Thank you so much.
Thank you, Councilwoman. Are there any other speeches on the part of the Majority? (No response.)
