Page 19 of the Gray Commission Report continuation of Appendix III outlines the limited powers of the proposed constitutional convention, emphasizing that it may only amend the Virginia Constitution to allow public funds to be used for private, nonsectarian schools. It states that the convention would have the authority to proclaim and enact these amendments without requiring voter approval, ensuring a streamlined process. The document also details the procedures for conducting the statewide election on whether to call the convention, including ballot formatting, election logistics, and ensuring that voters understand the convention’s narrow scope.
