RE:    GOV. MSG. NO. 698

 

 

 

Honorable Donna Mercado Kim

President of the Senate

Twenty-Seventh State Legislature

Regular Session of 2014

State of Hawaii

 

Madam:

 

     Your Committee on Commerce and Consumer Protection, to which was referred Governor's Message No. 698, submitting for study and consideration the nomination of:

 

Cable Advisory Committee

 

G.M. No. 698

TIMOTHY BRYAN,

for a term to expire 6-30-2015,

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     Your Committee has reviewed the personal history, resume, and statement submitted by the nominee and finds Timothy Bryan to possess the requisite qualifications to be nominated to the Cable Advisory Committee.

 

     Your Committee received testimony in support of the nomination of Timothy Bryan from the Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs and two individuals.

 

     Upon review of the testimony, your Committee finds that Mr. Bryan's background, experience, and commitment to serving the community qualify him for appointment to the Cable Advisory Committee.  Your Committee notes that Mr. Bryan has worked in various capacities in the television industry since 1976, and is currently a producer, director, and freelance cameraman for Tim O. Bryan Video Production Services in Volcano, Hawaii.  As a former board member for Na Leo O Hawaii Community Access Television, Mr. Bryan was exposed to many of the issues and concerns facing public access television.  This background experience will be useful to the Cable Advisory Committee.  Your Committee further finds that Mr. Bryan has a thorough understanding of the role and responsibilities of committee members and will bring a valuable neighbor island perspective to the Cable Advisory Committee.  Your Committee therefore recommends that Mr. Bryan be appointed to the Cable Advisory Committee based on his knowledge, experience, and dedication to public service.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Commerce and Consumer Protection that is attached to this report, your Committee, after full consideration of the background, experience, and qualifications of the nominee, has found the nominee to be qualified for the position to which nominated and recommends that the Senate advise and consent to the nomination.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Commerce and Consumer Protection,
