Daves: E-mail panel needs new leader


Linda Daves says Gov. Mike Easley needs a new leader on the panel he has asked to review his administration's handling of e-mail.

Daves, chairwoman of the N.C. Republican Party, was struck by Franklin Freeman's comments earlier today that he does not communicate by e-mail. Easley has assigned Freeman, one of his top aides, to lead a panel to study the retention of e-mails by public employees under the state's public records law.

"With this latest revelation, I now urge Governor Easley to take this inquiry seriously and appoint a chairman with familiarity with the technology and issues involved in this important matter," Daves said in a statement.
