WHEREAS, The Executive Law authorizes the appointment of a
					 special prosecutor to supersede a district attorney in certain
					 instances;
WHEREAS, District Attorneys are constitutional officers
					 with broad authority to prosecute all crimes committed within their
					 jurisdiction;
WHEREAS, To preserve this constitutional balance, before
					 superseding the authority of a constitutionally elected district attorney there
					 should be adequate evidence that, in the absence of other effective relief
					 available by law, the district attorney has become incapacitated or is unfit or
					 unable generally or in a particular case to proceed; and
WHEREAS, It is desirable to establish a mechanism for
					 determining whether this standard for superseding a district attorney generally
					 or in a particular case has been met:
NOW THEREFORE, I, Mario M. Cuomo, governor of the State of
					 New York, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and Laws
					 of the State of New York, do hereby reestablish the existing Committee to
					 Review Requests for the Appointment of a Special Prosecutor, now by Executive
					 Order:
I. Membership
Members of the committee shall consist of the State
					 Director of Criminal Justice, who shall be the chairperson of the committee,
					 the Counsel to the Governor, the First Assistant Counsel to the Governor, and
					 two members of the Governor's Cabinet appointed by the Governor.
II. Powers and Responsibilities
The committee shall function at the request of the
					 Governor. It shall, when called upon:
1. consider and evaluate individual requests
				  for the appointment of a special prosecutor by making as full an investigation
				  as is deemed necessary;
2. obtain
				  the response of the local district attorney and any comments of other law
				  enforcement officials involved;
3.
				  report to the Governor the nature of the request and the response of the local
				  district attorney; and
4. recommend
				  to the Governor whether additional action pursuant to section 63  of the
				  Executive Law should be taken, including whether the Attorney General should be
				  asked to use the powers granted to his office by section 63(8) of that law.
The findings and conclusions of the committee shall be made
					 available for public inspection unless the committee determines that disclosure
					 would impair an ongoing investigation or otherwise be contrary to law.
