SUMMARY OF ALLEGATIONS

On May 4, 1984, counsel for the Stein '81 Committee and the

Stein for Congress Committee submitted to the Commission a

request for an investigation into certain issues involving

expenditures made by Stein '81 which had been cited in the

April 19, 1984, issue of Town and Village as possible violations

of the Federal Election Campaign Act (" the Act"). This request

has been designated Pre-MUR 123. Stein '81 is registered in the

State of New York as 's committee for his 1981

campaign for the presidency of the Borough of . The Stein for Congress Committee is Mr. Stein's authorized committee for the 1984 campaign for the U.S. House of Representatives in

the 15th Congressional District of New York. Mr. Stein filed his Statement of Candidacy on February 17, 1984. -2- The specific issues into which counsel for the above committees has requested an investigation are whether any violations of the Act have occurred as the result (1) of the expenditure of surplus campaign funds by Stein '81 for certain mailings, and (2) the repayment of a debt owed D.li. Sawyer and Associates, Ltd. Counsel submitted a copy of the April 19, 1984 issue of Town and Village cited above, as well as a copy of a follow-up article in the same publication dated April 26, 1984, and copies of newspaper articles and of letters, meeting announcements, etc., which assertedly constituted the mailings questioned by Town and Village. On May 15, 1984, the Commission received a complaint dated May 9 from George McDonald which has been designated M4UR 1699. Tn this complaint Mr. McDonald states that reports filed by Stein '81 in 1983 and 1984 show receipt of corporate contributions and of contributions from individuals in excess of $1,000, and that during the same periods no "active re-election campaign for Borough President was being conducted.* The complainant cites allegations that voter lists have been compiled by Stein '81 "which relate only to the 15th Congressional District" and that Stein '81 has paid for mailings exclusively within this district. Attached to the complaint were copies of the Stein '81 financial disclosure reports cited in the complaint and copies of articles from the April 19, April 26, and May 3, 1984, issues of Town and Village. The complainant asserts that "(s) ince the contributions received by Stein '81 are not in compliance with the federal election laws, expenditures in -3- support of a federal election campaign would violate federal law."

LEGAL AND FACTUAL ANALYSTS

The allegations raised in the complaint in MUR 1699 are Identical to the first question posed in Pre-MUR 123, i.e., whether certain expenditures made by Stein '81 in 1983 and 1984 were made for the purpose of influencing Mr. Stein's federal campaign, thus bringing them within the definition of expenditure at 2 U.S.C. S 431(9)(A)(i) and subjecting them to the limitations established by 2 U.S.C. S 441a(a) and to the prohibitions of

2 U.S.C. S 441b. This Office therefore recommends that Pre- MUR 123 be merged into MUR 1699.

Based upon a comparison of dates and figures cited in the Town and Village articles attached to the complaint with expenditures listed in the Stein '81 reports also so attached, the specific expenditures at issue apparently include:

1) Payments made between July, 1983, and January, 1984, to Election Computer Services and to O.S.T., which, according to the Stein '81 report for this period, totalled $9,131.43;

2) Payments made between July, 1983, and January, 1984, for postage which, according to the Stein '81 report for this period, totalled $21,360; 3) Dayments made between July, 1983, and January, 1984, to several vendors for printing which, according to the Stein '81 report for this period, totalled $16,750;

4) Payments made between July, 1983, and January, 1984, to twenty-two individuals in amounts ranging from $150 to $240 for a total of $4,760. The reported purpose of seven of these expenditures is 'computer listf and one of the persons itemized i quoted In Town -ndVilla e, April 19, 1914, as hav5 i at that she checked Board of Election lists for voters In certain years. 5) Payment made between July, 1983, and January, 1984, to the Board of Elections of $257.71 for voter lists. The January 15, 1983, and July, 1983 reports filed by Stein '81 also cite expenditures totaling $3,800 for postage and $2,611.11 for printing.

The complainant in MUR 1699 states that *(m)any of these

payments appear to be of the type that would be primarily in support of Mr. Stein's candidacy for Congress.' He goes on to cite allegations, presumably in Town and Village, that voter lists are being compiled by the Committee which relate only to

the 15th Congressional District. . . . Tn addition, allegations have been made that the Committee had paid for mailings that were made exclusively within the Congressional District.' The article in the April 19, 1984, issue of Town and Village states that according to a named representative of the Board of Elections, voter lists were purchased in May and July, 1983, and "were for downtown.'"

In the memorandum submitted with the request of the Stein '81 Committee that the Commission consider the issues discussed herein, counsel argues that the above-cited expenditures were made with excess campaign funds and involved mailings of reprinted newspaper articles, newsletters, meeting announcements, "alerts" and greeting cards in connection with Mr. Stein's official duties as Manhattan borough president. Counsel states that the issues addressed in the mailings were "relevant to the duties of the Office of the Borough President' and that "dissemination was Borough-wide and not limited to the 15th Congressional District (East Side-Manhattan).' This memorandum lists fourteen specific mailings and the categories of persons to whom they were sent. Attached to the memorandum are copies of the reprinted newspaper articles and other mailings cited. (Attachment 1). The contents of these mailings cover a wide range of subjects, from rent hikes and rising phone bills to landmark preservation and sex-based discrimination. All of the letters enclosed self-addressed, postage-paid cards by which recipients could indicate interest in the subject discussed in the letter. Certain of the letters are aimed at specific target groups such as Title I project residents, residents of rent- stabilized buildings, and residents of particular geographic areas, some inside and others outside the 15th Congressional District. None of the attached mailings mentions Mr. Stein's candidacy for federal office nor does any solicit contributions to that effort. Since Pre-MUR 123 was opened, counsel has also furnished a letter from Marguerite P. Manahon concerning the nature of the work prepared by O.S.I. and Election Computer Services, Inc., companies cited in the Town and Village articles as payees of some of the expenditures at issue. (Attachment 2-a). 2 U.S.C. S 431(9) (A)(i) defines "expenditure" as including "any purchase, payment, distribution, loan, advance, deposit, or 0 -6- gift of money or anything of value, made by any person for the purpose of influencing any election for Federal office." The Commission has consistently determined that for an expenditure to be deemed to have been made "for purposes of influencing" a federal election, the major purpose of the activity being financed must be the nomination or election of a candidate. See, e.g., AO 1978-15, AO 1978-56, and AO 1980-22. The absence of express advocacy of the nomination or election of a candidate, and of any solicitation of contributions on behalf of a candidate would also support a finding that the definition of expenditure at Section 431(9)(a)(i) does not apply in a particular situation. MUR 1458 involves a fact pattern analogous to that in Pre- MUR 123 and MUR 1699. Tn this earlier matter allegations were directed at expenditures in excess of $1,000 made by the state committee of a California State Assemblyman for travel and lodging at a time when the same individual was also a federal candidate. The investigation revealed that the expenditures involved appearances by the candidate primarily in his capacity as a State Assemblyman and that he had not campaigned for federal office on those occasions. Any benefit to his federal campaign was deemed "incidental" and thus unreportable pursuant to 11 C.F.R. S 106.3(b)(3). The Commission determined that the state committee had not violated the Act by failing to register and to report the above expenditures. See also AO 1980-89 and AO AO 1980-16.

In the present instance the expenditures made by Stein '81 for mailings do not appear to meet the Section 431(9)(A)(i) 4 7- definition of expenditures. They contain no express advocacy of, Mr, Stein's candidacy for federal office, nor do they solicit contributions. All involve issues and activities which can be deemed to have been undertaken primarily in connection with Mr. Stein's position as borough president. Even if some of the mailings were targeted only at individuals within the 15th Congressional District, they do not appear to constitute "expenditures" for purposes of the Act. Therefore, this Office recommends a finding of no reason to believe that Stein '81 has violated the Federal Election Campaign Act in this regard. Counsel for the Stein committees has also requested Commission consideration of payments made to D.H. Sawyer and Associates, Ltd. (*Sawyero). The Stein '81 reports furnished by the complainant in MUR 1699 show expenditures to this company of $60,000 in 1982 and of $50,000 in 1983-84. Counsel has stated that a dispute arose between Stein '81 and Sawyer following the 1981 election regarding the amount owed by the committee, and that after a July, 1983, fundraiser additional payments were made in resolution of the 1981-related dispute. Counsel contends that Sawyer *has performed no services for Stein or any committee connected with Mr. Stein since the 1981 Borough President election nor has D.H. Sawyer been retained in connection with any federal election nor is it expected that D.H. Sawyer will be retained in connection with any federal election." Counsel has also submitted a letter from David H. Sawyer dated April 10, 1984, stating that the firm "has performed no services for Andrew -8- Stein or any committee connected with Mr. Stein since 1981 Borough President election.* (Attachment 2-b). In light of this verification by the vendor of counsel's assertions as to the timing of services and the purposes of payments made, there appears to be no indication that the payments to D.H. Sawyer and Associates at any time have been for the purposes of influencing a federal election. Therefore, this Office also recommends a finding of no reason to believe that Stein '81 has violated the Federal Election Campaign Act in this regard. RECOMMENDATIONS 1. That Pre-MUR 123 be merged into MUR 1699. 2. That the Commission find no reason to believe that Stein '81 has violated the Federal Election Campaign Act. 3. That the attached letters be sent and the file in this matter closed.

DIVESTITURE.:. WHAT TO DO? On January 1, American Telephone & Telegraph will divest itself of its operating companies, including New York Telephone Company. AT&T will be responsible for long distance calls and customer premises equipment. New York Telephone will provide local calling service. The divestiture will radically change our telecommunication system.

The divestiture's effects on local telephone rates deeply concern me. I recently completed a study indicating the telephone company will need $2.9 billion over the next two years to pay this for process. Telephone officials predicted local rates could more than double in the next three to five years.

Telephone customers, however, have various options for cutting their telephone bills: Buy_ _yur 1) owneauipment - Most customers currently rent their equipment from New York Telephone Company. However, equipment, as well as future rental fees will revert to .TLT. Now, customers can own their equipment by purchasing it from AT&T or other telephone companies. You can thus avoid the monthly rental charges of $4 to $12 for standard equipment. You will recover your investment after several years. However, once you purchase the equipment, you are responsible for its maintenance and upkeep. Therefore, purchase high quality equipment, so costly repairs will not be frequently required. 2)Survey the Long Distance Market - As of January 1, long distance will no longer be provided by New York Telephone Company. Thereafter, consumers will be able to choose amongst a variety of providers of long distance service including AT&T, MCI, SPRINT and other carriers. Thus, for the first time, there will be a competitive market for your long distance dollar. The best advice is to shop around for the best long distance service that will give you the service you use or need at the best possible price.

3) Use local Teleohone Directories - Directory Assistance charges, for both local and long distance service, will increase as services are priced on a competitive basis. Therefore, consumers should seek to obtain telephone directories from the counties they most often call, so that operator assisted directory service can be avoided.

Telephone service will be changing significantly as of January 1. Consumers, however, have the capability to hold down their own rates by shopping around for the best possible service equipment. and Now that competition has entered into the telephone industry, we shold take advantage of all avenues of service.

ACCESS FEE POSTPONED The American Telephone and Telegraph Company had proposed to charge all of a its customers $2 monthly access fee- no matter how much money they spent on long distance calls. This charge could rise to $6 per month at a later date.

After months of discussion, however, the Federal Communications Commission has decided to put the new fee on hold for at least three months. Hopefully, we, along with other telephone intervenors, can convince the FCC to reject the proposal, and base all residential long distance ra:es on actual usage. This monthly charge is unnecessary and unfair to the telephone ratepayer.

HOW TO COMPLAIN ABOUT YOUR TELEPHONE BILL Many telephone customers wanqt to know where to complain about problems with their bill or service. The first step is to contact the telephone company. Your customer service representative will try to solve your problem.

However, if the telephone comparny doesn't satisfy you, call the New York State Public Service Commission- toll free. The PSC will investigate the problem. You are entitled to a formal hedn on any billing dispute and to appeal an adverse decision to the Commission itself.

The toll free.rnber for the PSC is (800) 342-3355. If you wish to contact the Commiin by mail, write to: : !

Dear Mr. Ransom, I amn writing to invite you to join me at a community meeting which will considet the question of whaether the Upper East Side Historic District should be extended from 79th Street up to 96th Street.

Councilwoman Carolyn Maloney will join me in cosponsoring the event.

The issue of extending the Upper East Side Historic District is of enormous personal imnortance to me. My wife Lynn and I live i the area and both share a strong belief that the area from 79th to 96th has unique architectural characteristics that must be preserved. There has been a tremendous amount of development al1 over the East Side and it is important that the low density and the striking facades of many of the buildings preserved against further encroachment.0be If you are unable to make the com uity meeting but would sto ke to keep iformed of what we are doing on the issue of historic preservation and the extension of the Upper Last Side Historic District, please return the enclosed paid card to me.

Mr. Stephen Balderston 2025 , Apt. 12K New York, NY 10023 Dear Mr. Balderston, No one enjcys delivering bad. news. However, I think that it is important that you know that your rent may be significatly increased u-nless we do something to charge the current law.

As I am sure you know, your building is presently rent stabilized. As a result, your rent can only be raised by a fixed percentage each year. But if the current law is not changed, your building will no longer be rent stabilized 'fter July 1, 1988. This is because your building was constructed as part of thie " 2?1 a" r"-ra. This program, designed to enourage construction of residential buildin;s, granted own.ers a declining tax abate.ent for ten years but. made the new buildings subject to rent stabilizaticn for the sa.,ne ten year period. The ten years is just about up for the first buildings constructed under this rogram nd we can only anticiFate a sharp rise in rents.

Fort"nately, there is a remedy. Together we can work to anend the legisiation coverirn "'21 a" buildings.

Last year the state assemb.ly passed such arn a.enlment but the Republican controlled state senate rejected the proposal. com ccnvlnced that we can win the -ightthis yea. and I an working with the a Coaliton a=nd other MH .attan tenants to form a co=ittee to take our message dIrec tly to the Republican -a ority leader of the state senate, Warren.. nderson.

You will have the oppcrtunity to present your views as well as listen to the comments of Preservationist Bredan Gill and Gene Norman, Chairman of the Landmarks Preservation Commission. The Murray Hill Committee is co-sponsoring the event.

The designation of a historic distric: in Murray Hill is of enorrous importance. The area has unique architectural characteristics and a distinct atmosphere that should be preserved. It is important that the low density, residential character, and unique buildings be protected from further encroachment.

If you wish to express your views at our community meeting, please call Elizabeth Wright at 566-3Z46.

If you are unable to attend this meeting but would like to be informed of further developments regarding historic preservation and the proposed Murray Hill Historic District, please return the enclosed paid postcard.

The hearing will focus on three aspects of the problem:

A number of experts will testify concer-ning the scope of these problems and possible solution-s. But we are most interested in hearing about your experiences. A number of people have already asked to speak at the hearing. As space is limited, we ask that you call Laura T6ole, 566-6Z37, at your earliest convenience to arrange a time to testify.

We recently held a hearing at City Hall on one aspect of sex-based discrimination - the absence of equal pay for work of comparable worth. A copy of article on the hearing is enclosed. As you can see, we are taking steps to address the issue, but more must be done.

Of course, we welcore ycu to attend the hearing whether you choose to testify or not. If you cannot come but would like to remain on our mailing list, please return the enclosed self-addressed postage-paid card.

Dear Ms. Nadelberg,

As ! am sure you know' thhe building -ou live in is known as a Title I project. While Title i has been the subiect of recent iiigation, your b'Jilding is not directiy invuived. Nonetheless. because ma=y of you have asked me about recent developments invoimg cc-op conversions of Title I projects,"I would *liketo share with you a re-iew of my actridties in this area.

On Thursday, September 15, 1983, I sponsored a resoluticn at the Board of Estim-ate putting it cm record as solidly supporting the view that amy ccnversicz of a .Ttle I project to a cooperative or condcmizium must be approved by the Bi:&-d (resolu:io-.ezciosed). I was very pleased when the Board of Estiante u -ouslv su..:-ted my resclution.

When legal ch/-Penges fcllowed :his action, i encou-aged the Corporation Counsel of New "crk City and the A:'c.-ev -eera of New York State to support our posi:icn i= :he courts. in the inii:iai case. u=fcrunat.ely, the courts r-Led a.ainst the city'?s posi-ior_. 7=L- decision is now being appealed.

c e,: ey UDAT E ON THE NEW UPDTEEMERGEvNCY TENANT PROTECTION ACT

During the 1933 session, the State Legislature revised the Emergency Tenant Protection Ac. (ETPA). Some changes are pro-tenant; others are pro-landlord. The major changes are described below. If you have any questions or any problems with your landlord, call the Borough President's Housing Office at 566-4105.

STATE OPERATION OF RENT CONTROL AND RENT STABILIZATION On April i, 1984, the Sta:e Division of Housing anc Commur.ity Renewal (DHCR) will begirn administering rent stabilization and ret control. By ui)' 1, 1984, landlords must register each aoar:mnent's rent witz-h DHCR. This will establish the initial regis:erec rent. A copy of each aoar:ment's registration must be sent to its tenant. A tenant has 90 days :c challenge the iniial reg.istered rent's legality.

Landlords found guiltv of wilIf,.ly overcharging after April 1, 1984 wil! be liable for damages e-ualiing three times the amoun: of the overcharge.

-DwIll a.so esfore the laws agaInst tenanthara smen:. La ndlcrts fcund guilty cf harassm-en: can now be fined up to $[,CC for the first offense and up to $2,5CO for suo.sequent cffenses.

APARTMENT SHARNIG 0 In May, 1983 "he State Court of AcoeaLs ruled :*hat andlords ma., evict unrelated -enants sharinc an aparment withou: the lamdlor-ts c nsent. The Legislature subsecuen:.!y revisec the law to ermt one a ='zona. 0cuoan: (a eson -t on the !ease nor rela:ed :o :he enant) and -,he aoccuant*5a, co,, oc~pn: deeddeencenzr ncdren.c'ii:r-n

SUBLETTING AND ASSIGNING The revised T?, ex iic:y g.ves :enar;.s the r:z.: to suble: their aoartments and prohibits landlords fom "unreasonably '':c.hocing consent." Tf a landlord unreascnably wit.hholts consent or does no: rescnd to 6ne sublet request, the tenant may proceed wi;h tr . . Howe,'er, a tenant's lease may . be assigned withoutn, 0 .... or' s consent, e -ven if "haz consent is unreasonabi', witnnelz. Defining "T',o reason to '"c.o., consent" has 'been lef- to :-.e cour.s.

S.."effecive october 1, 1983 to September 30 1934. The guidelines are the same as . last year; 4 percent fori a I year eej ai ipercent for a.two year lease. For ,t tenants whose electricity is included in the rent (Stuyvesant Town and Peter Cooper Village) the guidelines are 3 percent for a 1 year lease and 6 percent for year lease. Due to a law passed by the state legislature the three year leasea 2 provision has been eliminated.

Units renting for $200 or less, in addition to the mandated increases, wil have a $10 monthly additional allowance. Rents in these units are not to exceed $203 and $214 for a I or 2 year lease respectively. The RGB has also approved a three-tiered vacancy allowance ranging from no increase to 15 percent depending upon when the last vacancy occured.

I am encouraged by the Board's decision on the basic guideline of 4 and 7 percent because the cost of operating a rent stabilized building increased only slightly above last year. But re-imposing a vacancy allowance is unjustified and gives landlords an incentive to harass existing tenants to move. SENIOR CITIZEN RENT INCREASE EXEMPTION (SCRIE) The state legislature recently passed legislation which would allow the City Council to authorize cash payment to landlords whose Senior Citizen Rent Increase Exemption credits were greater than their property taxes. SCRIE allows senior citizens, 62 or older who have annual incomes of under $10,000 and pay at least one-third of their incomes for rent, to apply for exemption from further rent increases. The landlord gets a property tax credit for the amount of the exemption.

The New York State Supreme Court ruled the program to be unconstitutional because in some cases rent increase exemption amounts were greater than the property taxes, thus depriving the owner of rightful income. The City Council now has to act for the program to comply with the court order. You can help by writing your council representative and urging them to support SCRIE.

BRINGING THE LANDLORDS TO TRIAL In October 1980 1 filed a class action lawsuit, along with the New York State Tenant and Neighborhood Coalition, charging the New York City Rent Guidelines Board with violating the spirit and the intent oi the Rent Stabilization laws. The suit contends that, when it sets annual rent increases, the Board doesn't fully analyze all the economic factors that de:ermrne the profitability of housing. Instead it analyzes just the annual increases in prices for goods and services, only one factor in the housing market. The case is now," moving tow'ard trial and i am confident about its success. A fundr, s ing e ffort to supcr : e con.nuing 1ea a-:tle is now underway.

SUBJECT: ORIGINAL COMPLAINT - MUR 1699 dated May 9, 1984

Attachment GEORGE MDONAZI)M 211 East 81st 6treet New York,, New York leO2iq AtI4P:

May 9, 1984

CERTIFIED NAIL RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED The Federal Election Commission 1325 K Street, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20463 Ladies and Gentlemen: This letter is a formal complaint under Part 11, of the Federal Election Commission Regulations, and a request for an investigation into the campaign expenditures of Stein 81, the principal campaign committee of Andrew Stein for the 1981 Manhat- tan Borough President election. Mr. Stein has filed a Statement of Candidacy with the Federal Election Commission as a candidate for Congress from the 15th Congressional District of New York, and has established a principal campaign committee for that election, under the name "Stein for Congress". I am requesting an investiga- tion as to possible expenditures by Stein 81 in support of the candidacy of Mr. Stein for Congress. Enclosed are financial reports of Stein 81 for the, periods ended January 15, 1983, July 15, 1983 and January 15, 1984. Stein 81 received contributions during those periods of $269,415, $243,500, and $275,135, respectively, mainly from corporations and from contributors who made contributions in excess of $1,000. During those periods the committee had expenditures of $154,224, $116,134, and $87,151, respectively, exclusive of the repayment of loans to Mr. Stein. During those periods, no active re-election campaign for Borough President,: was being conducted. Many of these payments appear to be of the type that would be primarily in support of Mr. Stein's candidacy for Congress. For example, allegations have been made that voter lists are being compiled by the Committee which relate only to the 15th Congressional District, which encom- passes only a portion of the Borough of Manhattan. In addition, allegations have been made that the Committee has paid for mailings that were made exclusively within the Congressional District. Enclosed 0 S

The Federal Election Commission May 9, 1984 Page 2 is a copy of articles from The Town & Village Newspaper, which report that the Committee has refused to answer questions con- cerning allegations of this type. Since the contributions received by Stein 81 are not in compliance with the federal election laws, expenditures in support of a federal election campaign would violate federal law. I am therefore making this complaint and request for an investigation by the Federal Election Commission.

Sworn and Subscribed to by me this 9th da of May, 1984.

On the 9th day of May, 1984, before me personally came George McDonald, to me known to be the individual de- scribed in and who executed the foregoing instrument, and acknowledged that he executed the same.

May 4, 1984 BY HAND VIA WASHINGTON OFFICE Kenneth Gross, Esq. Associate General Counsel Federal Election Commission 1325 K Street, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20463

Dear Mr. Gross: Pursuant to our discussion after your receipt of my letter of April 30th with respect to Andrew Stein, enclosed please find a memorandum and exhibits thereto con- cerning alleged violations of the Federal Election Campaign Act by Mr. Stein and his committees. Included are the articles from Town & Village newspaper.

I would appreciate an opportunity to meet with you or your designee after you have reviewed the enclosed materials. Thank you for your cooperation.

Encs. PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

This memorandum is submitted on behalf of the Stein

'81 Committee, a non-federal committee which is registered pur- suant to the New York State Election Law, and the Stein for

Congress Committee, an authorized committee registered with the Federal Election Commission. The two Stein committees request that the Federal Election Commission investigate whether any violation of the Federal Election Campaign Act, as amended, has arisen by virtue of i) the expenditure of surplus campaign funds by Stein '81, (ii) the repayment of an obligation to D.H. Sawyer

%0 & Associates Ltd. which performed services for Stein'81 and (iii) CO a loan, the proceeds of which wer.e used in the 1981 campaign which

,'4 -I loan was then repaid. This request arises as a result of an article appearing in the April 19th issue of Town & Village under

0D the headline "Special Report - Stein Election Group May Have Vio- lated Federal Law", and a follow up article in the April 26th C issue, copies of which are enclosed. Because of the attention

which this article has received in the 15th Congressional District,

Mr. Stein is being tried in the local press, even though this Agency, which has jurisdiction over violations of the Federal Election

Campaign Act, has not reviewed the alleged violations. It is

therefore respectfully requested that a Pre-MUR number be assigned and that the Comission find "no reason to believe" that a violation

has occurred.-

BACKGROUND FACTS Andrew Stein was elected Borough President in November of 1981. As of that time his State Committee, Stein '81, owed Mr. Stein $520r000. Commencing in February IP82, repayments were made in small amounts so that by the beginning of July 1983 there remained owing in excess of $208,000. A fund-raiser in July of 1983 raised in excess of $128,000, another fund-raiser in November of 1983 raised an additional $135,000 and additional contributions continue to come in from time to time from the two fund-raisers. As a result a surplus existed in the Stein '81 fund. Under New York State Law, as'with respect to federal law, surplus campaign funds may be used for any lawful purpose in connection with the official duties of an off iceholder. See Opinion of N.Y.S. Board of Elections 1979-3. 00 As discussed below, each of the mailings was consistent with that principle of New York law. The mailings which appear to be at issue are as follows C:) and are included as an appendix to this memorandum: 1. Reprint of the New York Times, "Beyond Loving New August 28, 1982, York" - approximately 1,800 pieces. 2. Reprint of the New York Times, March 20, 1983, "Wanted, Ideas for New York City" - approximately 15,000 pieces. 3. Reprint of the "Get New York T~imes, April '.24, 1983, Ready for Phone Bills to Double" - approximately 11,000 pieces. 4. Reprint of the New York Times, May 23, Letter to the Editor, "Ill 1983, Chosen Approach to Rising Health Costs" - approximately 900 pieces. 5. Reprint of the New York Post, June "Rent H~ikes Should be 3, 1983, M~odest Again" - approximately pieces. 8,700 6. Reprint of the New York Post, September 1, 1983, "Let's give the MTA Back to the People" - approximately 2,900 pieces.

7. Reprint of the New York Times, February 18, 1984, entitled, "Preservation Laws Should Apply Equally" - approximately 1,000 pieces.

All of the above pieces were mailed to past contributors, community leaders throughout the borough, political leaders through- out the borough, past supporters and past campaign volunteers throughout the borough and the city, elected public officials throughout the borough and city, tenant organizations, block and civic associations, religious and fraternal organizations, veterans organizations and political clubs around the borough.

° dditionally, the following mailings were sent: 1. Andrew Stein's Tenant Newsletter - approximately 26,000 copies mailed to people on the West Side of Manhattan t(not in the 15th Congressional District), in November 1983.

2. Approximately 82,700 copies of a newsletter which was mailed throughout the borough concerning telephone divesti- ture, in November, 1983.

3. Upper East Side Historic District Letter (January 1984) - approximately 7,000 copies sent to the Upper East Side 0 calling upon the public to attend a hearing on landmark preserva- tion issues on the Upper East Side. 4. 421A Tenant Alert (March 9, 1984) - approximately 6,00 letters sent to tenants throughout the borough who would lose certain tenant protection during 1984-1985. CO 5. Murray Hill Historic District letter (March 1984) - approximately 5,000 copies were sent to-people in the Murray Hill area requesting attendance at a public hearing dealing with local historic preservation efforts.

6. Joint Andrew Stein/Carol Bellamy mailing (March 1984) on a hearing concerning women's rights in the workplace - 60,000 pieces were mailed to neighborhoods in the Upper West Side, West Side, Greenwich Village and the East Side, many more cf which were mailed outside than inside the 15th Congressional District. 7- Title I Tenant Alert (April 1984) -approximately 6,450 letters were sent to tenants in Title I buildings on the West Side and tbe Upper West Side of the borough. Additionally, the Stein mately Committee paid for approxi- 6,200 Jewish New Year's greeting cards and approximately 9,100 Christmas greeting cards which community went to past contributors, leaders and religious leaders, political leaders, political supporters and past campaign volunteers and appointed and elected officials throughout thi borough and the city.. The nature of these mailings and the characteristics of the recipients upderscore the fact that each of these mailings were done for a lawful purpose in connection with the official duties of the Borough President. In addition to the mailings, a portion of the $520,000 debt to the candidate remained outstanding through early 1984 and payments were made to D.H. Sawyer & Associates Ltd. ("Sawyer"), which had performed services for Mr. Stein in connection with the 1981 Borough President election. As of the end of the 1981 C election, there was a dispute with Sawyer as to the amount of the fee owed, and after the July 1983 fund-raiser, additional payments were made. These payments were in resolution of the dispute arising out of the 1981 election.* D.H. Sawyer has performed no services for Stein or any committee connected with Mr. Stein since the 1981 Borough President election nor has D.H. Sawyer been retained i.n connection with any federal election nor is it expected that D.N. Sawyer will be retained in connection with any federal election. See the enclosed letter from D.H. Sawyer. Given the fact that Sawyer has not and will not be retained in connection with any federal election, there could not have been a violation of the Federal UP% 1

Eleqtion Campaign Act.

With this factual discrepancy resolved, the only

federal issue remaining for legal analysis relates to the use of the surplus funds for the mailings. 1

ANALYSIS

As is clear from the above, the mailings related to issues relevant to the duties of the Office of the Borough

President. Indeed, most of the mailings related to purely New York City local issues. Moreover, dissemination was Boroughwide

and not limited to the 15th Congressional District (East Side- Manhattan) for which Mr. Stein has filed a Statement of Candidacy.

The Stein '81 Committee and the Stein for Congress Committee do not believe there has been any violation of the Federal Elec- CD tion Law for the reasons stated below.

New York State Law, as indicated above, clearly permits the use of campaign funds as has occurred in this case. Further- o more, federal law, as it has evolved through various Advisory Opinions and Matters Under Review, permits such expenditures

As discussed below, the mailings do not implicate the FECA and, therefore, the loan from the candidate does not raise a federal issue. even where someone is a "candidate" for federal office (which did not even occur here until at least February 17, 1984,2. if there is another non-federal election purpose for the acti- vity.

Thus# for example, in AO 1978-15 the Commission held that a candidate may act as a chairman of a fund-raising opera- tion for a charity where there was no mention of his candidacy made in the charitable organization's materials and there was no solic'itation, making or acceptance of contributions to the federal campaign nor any communication which expressly advocated %0) the nomination or election to federal office or the defeat of any other candidate. Similarly, in AO 1982-15 the Commission held that a law firm can continue to conduct-its business and advertise when one of its members is a candidate for federal, o office if the advertisements did not publicize the candidacy. 1W In AO 1982-56, the Commission held that the appearances of a federal candidate in a television advertisement for a state candidate did not constitute a contribution from the state

2 While a Statement of Candidacy was filed on that date, the activities occurring were clearly in the nature of "testing the waters" expenditures. Thus under and 100.3, 11.

At the same time, disbursements 13, not of the Committee have yet risen to the $5,000 limit for anything Lesting other than of the waters", consultants and polling. officeholder to the federal since the advertisement was not for the purpose of influencing the federal election and did not mention the federal candidacy. See also AO 1978-4 (A testimonial

dinner may be held without regard to limits if no solicitation

or contributions and no express advocacy); AO 1977-42 (radio broadcasts not contributions if no solicitation and no advocacy); AO 1981-37 (Congressman may receive assistance from corpora- tions in connection with matters relating to his duties of office if no advocacy or solicitation, making or receipt of contributions).

MUR determinations by the Commission, as set forth in

the various General Counsel reports, also support the absence

of any federal violation here. Thus, MURs have made it clear that the "major purpose test" is not met and no violation occurs where there is another purpose to the expenditure under attack C and there is no solicitation or receipt of contributions and no

express advocacy. In MUR 1619 the issue was raised as to whether Rev. Jesse Jackson's trip to Syria involved campaign related

activity. Because there was ample evidence of diplomatic qualifi- cations and participation in the negotiations of one of Rev. Jack- son's assistants (Tom Porter), the General Counsel concluded and the Commission (5-0) agreed that there was no evidence that the trip was campaign related. Obviously, as is well-known, Rev.

Jackson's trip to Syria had a significant impact on his Presi-

dential campaign but none of the other indicia of campaign activity was present. Similarly in MUR 1476 an allegation was made that a

Senior Citizen Advisory Council picnic was a campaign event or activity. Citing AO 1980-89, 1980-22 and 1980-16 concerning

appearances by Congressmen during re-election campaigns, the Commission determined no contribution or expenditure was involved because of the absence of any communication expressly advocating

the nomination or election of the candidate or the defeat of another candidate and there was no soliciting, making or acceptance U of any campaign contributions.

Similarly in MUR 1458 an allegation was made that expenditures for travel, lodging, polling and telephone ser- 0O vices were made in connection with a federal election. With respect to travel and lodging, it was held that the appearances

Iwere in connection with the state officeholder's position even 0 though they overlapped with the congressional district in which

the state officeholder was a candidate and that any benefit to the congressional campaign was incidental. However, with respect to polling, it was determined that since certain ques- tions would clearly be an aid to the feaeral campaign that there

should have been an allocation. In this case, all polling in connection with the federal campaign has been paid for by Stein

for Congress. Similar analyses appear in MUR 1283 involving the Readers' Digest, MUR 1372 and MUR 1298 ("public exposure

by an individual as a candidate will not be presumed to be for the purpose of influencing an election, provided that it can be shown that the appearance had some alternative justification").

CONCLUSION

For the foregoing reasons, it is respectfully sub-

mitted that there is no "reason to believe" a violation of the Federal Election Campaign Act, as amended, has occurred. Either

a Pre-MUR or a MUR humber should be assigned and, based upon

the inftormation set forth, a finding made that neither Stein '81 nor Stein for Congress violated the FECA as a result of the activities herein described.

NOT AT GOVERNMENT EXPENSE. The Rent Guidelines Board a ppoe nee:I rent- apertuWONblzs effective October 1, 1983 to Sept nber.^0 190*,, Thea-Iid.Unes ai ethe same as last year; 4 percent for a I year lea and 7 percent for a two year lease. For tenants whos electrdity 1i Mudel lit the t%' ,(StIM 1 w6 .Ad Peter Cooper Village) the guidelines are 3 percent 'for a I yer lea*e and-6 percent 16r2 year lease. Due to a law passed by the state legisature the three year 14ee provision has been eliminated. Units renting for $200 or less, in addition-to the mandated increases, will batve-a $10 monthly additional allowance. Rents in these units are not to exceed $208 and $214 for a I or 2 year leas respectively.

The RGB has also approved a three-tiered vacancy allowance ranging from no increase to 15 percent depending upon when the last vacancy occured. I am encouraged by the Board' decision on the basic guideline of* .and 7 p t because the cost of operating a. rent stabilzd building increased only slightly above last year. But re-imOslni- a va alO~ance is unjustified and gives landlords an incentive to harass existing tenants to move., .m CIA~ REM I The state legislature recently passed legislation which would allow the City Council to authorize cash paymnt to landlords whme Senior Citizen Rent Increase Exemption credits were greater than their property taxes* SCRE alows seAor citizens, 62 or older who have annual incomes of under $10,000 and pay at !et one-third of their incomes for rent, to apply for exemption from further 'teit increases. The landlord gets a property tax credit for the amount of the exemption.

The New York State Supreme Court ruled the program to be unconstitutional because in some cases rent incresem emption amounts were greater than the property taxes, thus depriving the owner of rightful income. The City Councilpow has to act for the program to comply with the court order. You can help by writing your council representative and urging them to support SCRIE.

BRINGING THE LANDLORDS TO TRIAL In October 1980 1 filed a class action lawsuit, along with the New York State Tenant and Neighborhood Coalition, charging the New York City Rent Guidelines Board with violating the spirit and the intent of the Rent Stabilization laws. The suit contends that, when it sets annual rent increases, the Board doesn't fully analyze all the economic factors that determine the profitability of housing. Instead it analyzes just the annual increases in prices for goods and services, only one factor in the howing market. The case is now moving toward trial and I am confident about its success. A fundraising effort to support the continuing legal battle is now underway.

IF YOU HAVE A HOUSING PROBLEM, CALL BOROUGH PRESIDENT. S S HOUSING UNIT FOR ASSISTANCE - 566-41050 -over- During the 1983 session, the State Legislature revised the Emergency Tenant Protection Act (ETPA). Some changes are pro-tenant; others are pro-landlord. The major chwvges are described below. If you have any questions or any problems with your landlord, call the Borough President's Housing Office at 5"-105. STATE OPERATION OF RENT CONTROL AND RENT STABILIZATION On April 1, 1984, the State Division of Housing and Community Renewal (DHCR)r will begin administering rent stabilization and rent control. By July 1, 1914 landlords must register each apartment's rent with DHCR. This will establish the initial registered rent. A copy of each apartment's registration must be sent to its tenant. A tenant has 90 days to challenge the initial registered rent's legality. Landlords found guilty of willfully overcharging after April 1, 1984 will be liable tr for damages equalling three times the amount of the overcharge. nDHCR will also enforce the laws against tenant harassment. Landlords found guilty of harassment can now be fined up to $1,000 for the first offense and up to cO $2,500 for subsequent offenses. APARTMENT SHARING In May, 1983 the State Court of Appeals ruled that landlords may evict unrelated tenants sharing an apartment without the landlords consent. The Legislature subsequently revised the law to permit one additional occupant (a person not on the lease nor related to the tenant) and the additional occupant's dependent children. SUBLETING AND ASSIGNING The revised ETPA explicitly gives tenants the right to sublet their apartments and prohibits landlords from "unreasonably withholding consent." If a landlord unreasonably withholds consent or does not respond to the sublet request, the tenant may proceed with the sublet. However, a tenant's lease may not be assined without the landlord's consent, even if that consent is unreasonably withheld. Defining "good reason to withhold consent" has been left to the courts. TENANTS OF NON-PROFIT INSTITUTIONS PfOTECTED Tenants in buildings owned by non-profit institutions are now covered by rent stabilization. Institutional landlords are now prohibited from evicting tenants to use their apartments for residential purposes if (1)the tenant has occupied the premises for five years and had not been informed of the institution's right to evict, or (2) the tenant had occupied the apartment prior to the institution's ownership. OVERCHARGE APPEAL DEADLINE Tenants who suspect they are being overcharged should file a complaint with the City's Conciliation and Appeals Board (CAB) before the April 1, 1984 State takeover. Currently, a tenant whose complaint is verified may recover all overcharges. After the State takeover, a statute of limitations will prevent the recovery of overcharges made more than four years prior to the complaint.

DIESTITURFA WHAT TO DO? On January 1, American Telephone & Telegraph will divest itself of its operating companies, including New York Telephone Company. AT&T will be responsible for long distance calls and customer premises equipment. New York Telephone will provide local calling service. The divestiture will radically change our telecommunicatiorn system. The divestiture's effects on local telephone rates deeply concern me. I recently completed a study indicating the telephone company will need $2.9 billion over the next two years to pay for this process. Telephone officials predicted local rates could more than double in the next three to five years.

Telephone customers, however, have various options for cutting their telephone bills: 1)Buy your own equipment - Most customers currently rent their equipment from New York Telephone Company. However, equipment, as well as future rental fees will revert to AT&T. Now, customers can own their equipment by purchasing it from AT&T or other telephone companies. You can thus avoid the monthly rental charges of $4 to $12 for standard equipment. You will recover your investment after several years. However, once you purchase the equipment, you are responsible for its maintenance and upkeep. Theref ore, purchase high quality equipment, so costly repairs will not be frequently required.

2)Survey the Long Distance Market - As of January a, long distance will no longer be rovided by New York Telephone C'mompany. Thereafter, consumers will be able to choose amongst a variety of providers of long distance service including AT&T, MCI, SPRINT and other carriers. Thus, for the first time, there will be a competitive market for your long distance dollar. The best advice is to shop around for the best long distance service that will give you the service you use or need at the best possible price. 3)Use local Telephone Directories- Directory Assistance charges, for both local and long distance service, will increase as services are priced on a competitive basis. Therefore, consumers should seek to obtain telephone directories from the counties they most often call, so that operator assisted directory service can be avoided. Telephone service will be changing significantly as of January 1. Consumers, however, have the capability to hold down their own rates by shopping around for the best possible service and equipment. Now that competition has entered into the telephone industry, we should take advantage of all avenues of service.

ACCESS FEEPOT NE The American Telephone and Telegraph Company had proposed to charge all of Its customers a $2 monthly access fee- no matter how much money they spent on long distance calls This charge could rise to $6 per month at a later date. After months of discussion, however, the Federal Communications Commission has decided to put the new fee on hold for at least three months. Hopef ully, we, along with other telephone intervenors, can convince the FCC to reject the proposal, and base all residential long distance rates on actual usage. This monthly -charge is unnecessary and unfair to the telephone ratepyer.

Mr. William H Ransom 115 E 87 St, #14e New York, NY 10028

Dear Mr. Ransom, I am writing to invite you to join me at a community meeting which will consider the question of whether the Upper East Side Historic District should be extended from 79th Street up to 96th Street. Date: Sunday, February Sth Place: The Dalton School 108 East 89th Street (Between Park and Lexidnton) Time: 1:00 PM

You will have an opportunity to present your views as well as listen to the comments of such people as Kent Barwick, Chairman of the Municipal Art Society, Preservatloeat Brendan Gill, and Gene Norman, Chairman of the Landmarks Preservation Commission. Councilwoman Carolyn Maloney will join me in cosponsoring the event. The issue of extending the Upper Last Side Historic District is of enormous personal importance to me. My wife Lynn and I live in the area and both share a strong belief that the area from 79th to 96th has unique architectural characteristics that must be preserved. There has been a tremendous amount of development all over the East Side and it is important that the low density and the striking facades of many of the buildings be preserved against further encroachment. If you are unable to make the community meeting but would still like to keep informed of what we are doing on the issue of historic preservation and the extension of the Upper East Side Historic District, please return the enclosed paid card to me. Please call Laura Toole at 566-6237 if you are interested in making your views beard at our community meeting on February 5th.

Mr, Stephen balderston 2025 Broadway, Apt. 121 New York, N! 10023 Dear Mr. Balderston, No one enjoys delivering bad news. However, I think that it is important that you know that your rent may be significantly increased unless we do something to change the current law. As I an sure you know, your building is presently rent stabilized. As a result, your rent can only be raised by a fixed percentage each year. But if the current law is not changed, your building will no longer be rent stabilized after July 1, 1988. This is because your building was constructed as part of the "421 a" program. This program, designed to encourage construction of residential buildings, granted owners a declining tax abatement for ten years but made the new buildings subject to rent stabilization for the same ten year period. The ten years is just about up for the first buildings constructed under this program and we can only anticipate a sharp rise in rents. Fortunately, there is a remedy. Together we can work to amend the legislation covering "421 a" buildings. Last year the state assembly passed such an amendment but the Republican controlled state senate rejected the proposal. I am convinced that we can win the fight this year and I am working with the 421 a Coalition and other Manhattan tenants to form a comittee to take our message directly to the Republican majority leader of the state senate, Warren Anderson.

I urge you to return the enclosed postage paid card to me so that I can keep you informed and show the Republican leaders how many people support our cause. If you would like more information please call Elizabeth Wright in my housing unit at 566-4105.

Date: Sunday, April 1 Place: High School of Art and Design 1075 Second Avenue (Between 56th and 57th Street) Time: 11 am.

The hearing will focus on three aspects of the problems (1) Pay equity: equal pay for equal work and for work of comparable value, (2) Dsintory hiring and promotional practices, and (3) Economic disincentives e.g., inequities resulting from the absence of adequate child care and unfair retirement and health benefits.

A number of experts will testify concerning the scope of tiese problems and possible solutions. But we are most interested in bearing about your eperieces. A number of people have already asked to speak at the hearing. As space is limited, we ask that you call Laura, T6ole, 566-6237, at your earliest convenience to arrange a time to testify.

We recently held a hearing at City Hall on one aspect of sex-bMasd dlacrminl_ - the absence of equal pay for work of comparable worth. A copy of the New York Times article on the hearing is enclosed. As you can see, we are taking steps to address the issue, but more must be done.

Of course, we welcome you to attend the hearing whether you choose to testify or not. If you cannot come but would like to remain on our mailing list, please return the enclosed self-addressed postage-paid card. We look forward to seeing you on April 1. Sincerely,

ANDREW STEIN

April Z3, 1984 Ms. Alta Nadelberg 180 West End Ave. Apt. 5L New York, NY 10023 Dear Ms. Nadelberg, As I am sure you know, the building you live in is known as a Title I project.. While Title I has been the subject of recent litigation, your building is not directly involved. Nonetheless, because many of you have asked me about recent developments involving co-op conversions of Title I projects, I would like to share with you a review of my activities in this area. On Thursday, September 15, 1983, I sponsored a resolution at the Board of %0 Estimate putting it on record as solidly supporting the view that any conversion of a Title I project to a cooperative or condominium must be '- approved by the Board (resolution enclosed). I was very pleased when the O. Board of Estimate unanimously supported my resolution. When legal challenges followed this action, I encouraged the Corporation Counsel of New York City and the Attorney General of New York State to '.0 support our position in the courts. Inthe initial case, unfortunately, the courts ruled against the city's position. This decision is now being appealed. 0 As the appeal is being heard, I want you to know that I will continue to be guided in my actions by an original concern which prompted me to offer my Board of Estimate resolution. That concern is a simple one: that the rights of tenants in all Title I projects be fully protected. Furthermore, 17. while the current focus deals with three Manhattan projects, what is determined in these cases will set a precedent for all Title I conversion o proposals. For these reasons I will continue to work for and ci for the requirement of Board of Estimate approval of any conversions in Title I projects. Lastly, I would much appreciate any thoughts you have on this subject. If you would like to be kept informed, please return the enclosed card.

Sincerely,

Andrew Stein - Exeptdfomte 3 C4* A4 LENl6J91 D7A @ R Board of Estimate

No. 76 R4-43 IN THE MATTER OF a COMMUNICATION dated August 11, 19@3, from the President. Borough of MAnhattan, transmitting the following resolution which would require that before the conversion of any Federal Title I redevelopment projects from rental to cooperative or ondominium ownership, application must be made to the Board of Estimate for ap- proval of such conversions: WHEREAS, The federal Housing At of 1949 provided for financial assistance, 1loansan grants to clear. replan. reconstruct and rehabilitate blighted neighbor. hoods throughout the nation including New York City;, and WHEREAS, Under Title I of the Act, the federal government provided capital pants to the City of New York to fund the acquisition of property througfiout te City by condemnation proceedinp; and WHEREAS. The Board of Estimate of the City of New York exercised its power of eminent domain to assemble sites for developments, thereby displacing thousands of individuals and small businesses, and authorized the expenditure of millions of public dollars to make possible the development of thes projects; and WHEREAS. Section 509 of the agreement between the City of New York and Manhattantown, Inc. a Title I project located in the Borough of Manhattan (now known as Park West Village) dated May 22, 1962. states that "for a period of forty years from the completion of the project no change shall be made in such project as set forth in the redevelopment Plan attached hereto as Schedule A %ithoutthe con- sent of the City Planning Commission and the Board of Estimte of the City; and WHEREAS, Section 510(b) of the agreement between the City of New York and Apartments, a Title I project located in the Borough of Manhattan (now known as Coliseum Apartments) dated January 15, 1063, stat. that "for a period of forty (40) years from the completion of the housing project no chme shall be made in the project a et forth in the Redevelopment Plan of the Area (Schedule A of this A emen) without the consent of the City Planming Commission and the Board of Estimate of the City or of the respectivsuccessors of said Commission and Board"; and WHEREAS, Section 510(c) of the agreement between the City of New York and /Beolevue, a Title I project located in the Borough of Manhattan (now known as Kips Bay) dated September 23, 1954, states that "for the period of forty (40) yea from the cmpletion of the housing project no change shall be nmde in the housing project as set forth in the Redevelopment Plan contained in Schedule A of this Agreement, without the consent of the City Planning Commis- sion and the Board of Estimate of the City or of the respective successors of said Commission and Board"; and WHEREAS. The stated objective of emb redevelopment plan was "to provide housing at the lowest possible rental which is consistant with sound financial plan. ning" and and to obtain this objective the Board of Estimate established below mar. ket sales pries for the land on which the aforementioned projects are situated by determining the capitalized value of the development described in the redevelop. ment plan of each project using projected per room rents substantially below the market value rentals, thus reducing the overall cost of each project to its sponsor; and WHEREAS. It was the dlear intent of the Board of Estimate to reserve its right to determine the appropriateness of any change in the redevelopment plans for these projects; and WHEREAS, The three aforementioned Title I projects are at various stages in the process of attempted conversion from rental to cooperative or ,ondominium ownerhsip; and WHEREAS, The Office of the Attorney General of the State of New York has halted any further pr ng of the conversion of certain of these developments pending City Planning Commission nnd Board of Estimate approval. THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Estimate deems a conver- sion from rental to cooperative or condominium ow'nership in project. constructed under Title I of the Housing Act of 1949 to be a change in the Redevelopment Plan as adopted by the Board of Estimate; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that in order for a Title I rental development to convert to cooperative or condominium ownership Board of Estimate approval must be applied for and granted. On August 18. 1983 (Cal. No. 289), the matter was lai over to thi meeting. For €onszderation--..one resolution. 0
