Honolulu, Hawaii

, 2002

RE: H.B. No. 2432

 

 

 

Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-First State Legislature

Regular Session of 2002

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Judiciary and Hawaiian Affairs, to which was referred H.B. No. 2432 entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO DIRECT PAYMENT OF CHILD SUPPORT,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this measure is to delete reference to the Office of Child Support Hearings (OCSH) as an entity with the ability to order direct payments of child support.

Your Committee received testimony in support of the measure from the Department of the Attorney General.

Your Committee finds that eliminating these references will ensure that OCSH continues to receive the federal funding necessary for its federally approved functions and operations.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Judiciary and Hawaiian Affairs that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2432 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be placed on the calendar for Third Reading.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Judiciary and Hawaiian Affairs,
