Virginia debt commission named for settlement of state debt
A non partisan citizens and property holders committee is appointed by the Virginia attorney general and the board of public works to advise on the Virginia debt suit against West Virginia. The 16 member panel from five districts convenes on governor call and reports to the legislature with vacancies filled by the board. The move aims to secure a just settlement and possibly avoid further bond holder action.
