DONASTORG AND TURNBULL TO MEET ON Y2K

Sen. Adlah "Foncie" Donastorg, who authored legislation eight months ago to establish a Y2K oversight committee, will meet with Gov. Turnbull on Wednesday to discuss the Y2K issues.
Donastorg, who has been calling for a solution for over a year now said, in a release from his office, that he "looks forward to working towards a resolution with the new administration."
He said the private meeting with the governor is just the beginning.
Donastorg wants a detailed breakdown of how funds are to be used before considering any bills before the legislature. He also suggests that all government computers should be tested for Y2K readiness.
Donastorg has questioned for some time why states as large as Pennsylvania are not planning to spend much more than the Virgin Islands on Y2K compliance.
The senate will hold a session on Wednesday at 10 a.m. to consider legislation approved earlier this week and sent to the legislature for ratification.
