YOSHINA: No, I'm just asking for clarification. <br />MELLON-LACEY: Okay, now I mean we have quorum so this group can conduct <br />Business and <br />YOSHINA: My point is that I think we should have the full Commission voting on this. <br />Now if, you know, if the majority says no, then I'll go along with that, but I think there <br />should be the full Commission voting on its Chair and Co -Chair. <br />MELLON-LACEY: Well, I can only defer to the Commission as far as that. We have a <br />quorum so from that standpoint, we can conduct business. So, if you wish to make that <br />as a motion then— <br />YOSHINA: Okay, point taken. <br />MELLON-LACEY: So, do you not wish to make the motion? <br />YOSHINA: Yes. <br />Election of Vice Chair <br />MELLON-LACEY: Okay, so then we would move on to vote for —we have 2 <br />running for vice chair —or 2 nominated, Mr. Hustace and Mr. Akamu. So, with <br />respect to Mr. Hustace... <br />Mr. Hustace as Vice Chair carried the following <br />vote: <br />Ayes: Commissioners Akamu, Kossow, Lopez, <br />Lui, Yadao, and Yoshina. <br />Noes: None. <br />Abstain: Commissioner Hustace. <br />MELLON-LACEY: So, we have 6 ayes, 1 abstaining. So, we have Mr. Kossow is our <br />Chair, and Mr. Hustace, our Vice Chair. Thank you very much and Mr. Kossow, I'll turn <br />the meeting over to you. <br />LUL Can I just ask one question of you, Diana? <br />MELLON-LACEY: Sure. <br />LUL I thought according to the rules that abstaining was considered a "yes"? <br />MELLON-LACEY: I have to —well you know we haven't adopted these rules. <br />LUL Okay. <br />E:3 <br />
