) There shall be a Seal for each Court of Record and the Traffic Court of the government of Guam, which seals shall be the same as the Great Seal of Guam with the words AGreat Seal of@ omitted and in their place the name of the court shall be substituted.
(b) Any agency of the government which is authorized by law to have and use its own seal, and any other department, section or agency which the Governor, in his discretion, has authorized to use a seal, shall use a seal which is in the form of the Great Seal of the Territory of Guam but omitting the words AGreat Seal of@ and substituting therefor the name of the agency, department, or section authorized to use a seal.
(c) Any agency or department or branch of the government may design its own emblem representing that department, agency, or branch of the government, but the same shall not be considered its official seal.

COMMENT: This Section merges old § 112 and § 114 of the Govt. Code. Again, it appears to be better organization to consolidate two sections having the same subject. A new subsection (c) has been added to conform to present usage wherein the courts, the autonomous
agencies and even several departments have adopted Aseals@ other than the ones required by law. While these Aemblems@ give recognition to the separate interests of the various agencies using them, there is no good reason to change the present law requiring one seal having only the words changed for the officially recognized seal of the government of Guam. After all, the various agencies, branches and autonomous entities are still a part of the government of Guam. Such a requirement enhances recognition of the Territory as a whole. Each autonomous agency is created separately with a separate relationship to the government. The place of each agency in the government must be addressed separately. At such time, this Section, § 405 and other applicable laws would to be amended to reflect this specific legislation. It is the intent that this Section and § 405 reflect the present, though confused, situation. This is not the place to answer such fundamental questions. Note that the Aautonomous agencies@ in the Sections creating them, are specifically made a part of the government of Guam.
