It’s supposed to be a secret, but incoming House Speaker Ray Sansom, R-Destin, is making some personnel moves.

The Buzz is receptionist Bo Pittman and parliamentarian Leonard Collins have been told they will not be needed later that year. We previously reported that Mike Hansen will be Sansom’s chief of staff, replacing Bob Ward.

"We’ve been told there will be no discussions about the transition until much later

that year," House spokeswoman Jill Chamberlin replied when we asked about the changes.

Pittman became receptionist under outgoing Speaker Marco Rubio after longtime receptionist John Phelps retired in 2006. And Rubio created the $133,908 parliamentarian job the same year. He and Collins have a towering history dating at least to the 1996 Bob Dole campaign.  Sansom has not yet returned a phone sign seeking comment.
