     Your Committee on Higher Education & Technology, to which was referred H.C.R. No. 152 entitled:

 

"HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION URGING THE HAWAII TOURISM AUTHORITY, IN CONSULTATION WITH THE OFFICE OF ENTERPRISE TECHNOLOGY SERVICES, TO CONDUCT A STUDY ON THE SOCIAL AND SAFETY IMPACTS OF GEOTAGGING,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this measure is to urge the Hawaii Tourism Authority, in consultation with the Office of Enterprise Technology Services to conduct a study of the social and safety impacts of geotagging in the State and submit a report of their findings to the Legislature.
