Finally, the Charter states :
"In keeping with the plebiscite law, no change in the
relationship recommended by the Group, together with
the recommendations of the first Ad Hoc Advisory Group
would be made unless previously approved by the people
of Puerto Rico.
On the right to vote in Puerto Rico for candidates for
President and Vice-President of the United States, the Puerto
Rican members of this Ad Hoc Advisory Group suscribe the
recommendation of the previous Group to the effect that
the electorate of Puerto Rico be consulted directly and
separately on this form of participation.
While our proposed Compact of Permanent Union includes
several provisions which provide alternate forms of partici-
pation, we do not intend to adjuge in it the issue of the pre-
sidential vote. A majority of us consider preferable not to
delay the final approval of this Compact by the inclusion of
provisions (such as a constitutional amendment) that go beyond
the range of action of the Congress of the United States and
the people of Puerto Rico.
Approved, Saturday, April 12, 1975.
