                                 RE: H.B. No. 1192
                                     H.D. 1




Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say
Speaker, House of Representatives
Twentieth State Legislature
Regular Session of 1999
State of Hawaii

Sir:

     Your Committee on Judiciary and Hawaiian Affairs, to which
was referred H.B. No. 1192 entitled: 

     "A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO CRIME VICTIM COMPENSATION,"

begs leave to report as follows:

     The purpose of this bill is to allow money in the crime
victim compensation special fund to be used for salaries of
authorized positions and the collection of fees.

     Testimony in support of this bill was received from the
Department of the Prosecuting Attorney for the City and County of
Honolulu, the Crime Victim Compensation Commission, the Sex Abuse
Treatment Center, and concerned individuals.

     Your Committee finds that discretionary use of the available
money in the Crime Victim Compensation Special Fund furthers the
goal of fiscal self-sufficiency for the Crime Victim Compensation
Commission.

     Your Committee has amended this bill by making non-
substantive changes.

     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. 1192, as amended herein, and recommends that

 
 
 
 
                                 STAND. COM. REP. NO. 584
                                 Page 2

 
it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No.
1192, H.D. 1, and be referred to the Committee on Finance.

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



                                   ______________________________
                                   PAUL T. OSHIRO, Chair
