RE: S.B. No. 7
H.D. 1
C.D. 1
Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi
President of the Senate
Thirty-Second State Legislature
Regular Session of 2023
State of Hawaii
Honorable Scott K. Saiki
Speaker, House of Representatives
Thirty-Second State Legislature
Regular Session of 2023
State of Hawaii
Sirs:
Your Committee on Conference on the disagreeing vote of the Senate to the amendments proposed by the House of Representatives in S.B. No. 7, H.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE SCHOOL FACILITIES AUTHORITY,"
having met, and after full and free discussion, has agreed to recommend and does recommend to the respective Houses the final passage of this bill in an amended form.
The purpose of this measure is to make necessary amendments to clarify certain references to the School Facilities Authority used in section 302A-1151.1, Hawaii Revised Statutes.
Your Committee on Conference finds that Act 217, Session Laws of Hawaii 2021 (Act 217), replaced the terms "Department", "Board", or "Board of Education" with "School Facilities Authority" in section 302A-1151.1, Hawaii Revised Statutes. However, amendments made by Act 217 inadvertently contain redundant and confusing references that need clarification. This measure clarifies existing statutory language to effectuate Act 217's intended purpose.
Your Committee on
Conference has amended this measure by making it effective upon its approval.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the managers of your Committee on Conference that is attached to this report, your Committee on Conference is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 7, H.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Final Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 7, H.D. 1, C.D. 1.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the managers:
