The Intended Regulatory Action published in the Virginia Register of 
Regulations on December 14, 2015, concerning the prohibition of carrying concealed handguns in Executive Branch offices states that a Public Hearing will NOT be held at the proposed regulation stage.

I request that a Public Hearing be held during the proposed regulation stage for the intended regulations prohibiting carrying concealed handguns in Executive Branch offices and I request that public hearings be scheduled throughout the Commonwealth to allow all to comment without excessive travel cost.

Sincerely,   R Willard
