VETO MESSAGE ON SB 6047-S

                   April 1, 1994

To the Honorable President and Members,

  The Senate of the State of Washington

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     I am returning herewith, without my approval as to section 35, Substitute Senate Bill No. 6047 entitled:

"AN ACT relating to crimes involving alcohol, drugs, or mental problems;"

     Section 35 of Substitute Senate Bill No. 6047 is in conflict with section 19 of the same bill and contradicts the intent of the bill to maintain records for deferred prosecution for ten years.

     With the exception of section 35, Substitute Senate Bill No. 6047 is approved.

                   Respectfully submitted,

                   Mike Lowry

                   Governor
