Ace of Hearts:

My, my, my. It only took FOUR MONTHS, from the time he convened the
first Committee of Evidence, for it to suddenly dawn on Matthew
Veenker that the committee must be taking longer than the 7 days he
gave them in which to hold their hearings and to submit the Findings
and Recommendations.

But, bless his heart, he *did* realize it, and immediately did
something about it. It must have been the Christmas spirit that
moved him, or something.

OR! Could it be (perish the thought) that this original committee
could not be made to falsely find us all guilty (despite no
evidence), no matter HOW many times Veenker sent their F&Rs up
through OSA to DM, and had them SLAMMED back down to him as a
"reject" with orders to get that damned committee to declare us all,
and no matter HOW many times he told them to meet again and rework
their F&Rs so we looked like Really Bad People? Could it be? Could
*that* be why it took FOUR MONTHS for him to suddenly decide to do
something?

Perish the thought. I mean, he SAYS they didn't submit any F&Rs, and
we all know he wouldn't lie for anything in God's green earth, would
he?

Well, regardless, NOTE ONE THING: IN THIS CC INT EO THERE IS NOT ONE
SINGLE MENTION OF AN SPD! I consider this a major concession on the
part of these slugs. They KNOW that SPDs are the real issue here,
and now even THEY don't mention them, trying even harder to get the
entire question of SPDs completely out of the picture. And, believe
me, the committee that is disbanded by this issue also knew that
SPDs were the real issue by the time they had finished hearing
testimony. No wonder they had to be deep-sixed.

Hang on to this.

    JON RANDALL MCDONALD, VALERIE HASTINGS, STEPHEN MITCHELL

    The following Committee is hereby disbanded and assigned the
condition of Non-Existence: Wayne Carnahan, Melanie von Gunten,
Chris Beeny and Jason Maifeld.

    The Committee members have taken four months to investigate the
matter without resolving it or submitting their findings and
recommendations.

    The Committee of Evidence was convened to 1nvestigate
allegations that the Interested Parties have committed
ecclesiastical offenses by refusing to adhere to legal requirements
to pay income tax, promoting to other Scientologists to commit
similar acts, and meeting with other Scientologists to discuss their
disagreements with Church management efforts to encourage
parishioners to adhere to ethical standards of conduct in this
matter. If the Interested Parties are actually engaging in these
alleged activities, it violates Precept 9 of The Way To Happiness,
FLAG ORDER "REGULATIONS AND LAWS, ADHERENCE TO", HCO PL "SCIENTOLOGY
ORGS TAX AND BALANCE SHEETS" and HCO PL "INCOME TAX REFORM", wherein
LRH lays out the ecclesiastical importance of adhering to legal
requirements, and also gives comprehensive and lawful solutions for
improving taxation systems.

    The following new Committee is hereby assigned:

CHAIRMAN:   W/O Maddie Chawner
SECRETARY:  P03 Clemence Lorival
MEMBER:     P02 Dennis Young
MEMBER :    PO3 Yvonne Maday

    They are encouraged to rapidly ascertain the truth of the matter
as regards each of the Interested Parties, as to whether they have
been or have not been engaged in the alleged activities. The pleas
entered by the Interested Parties previously are on file, and
additional questions can be answered by interviewing more witnesses
or Interested Parties .
    the Committee is then to submit their findings and
recommendations in issuable form to the Convening Authority. They
have a maximum of seven days to do so.
