Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Sir:

     Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred H.B. No.
1616 entitled: 

     "A BILL FOR AN ACT AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF SPECIAL
     PURPOSE REVENUE BONDS FOR NOT-FOR-PROFIT CORPORATIONS THAT
     PROVIDE HEALTH CARE FACILITIES,"

begs leave to report as follows:

     The purpose of this bill is to issue special purpose revenue
bonds to assist the Pacific Women's Center, Inc., a not-for-
profit corporation, in the development of a health care facility
in the Koa Ridge area of central Oahu.

     The Central Oahu Physician Hospital and Wahiawa General
Hospital Organization testified in support of this bill.

     Your Committee has amended this bill by making technical,
nonsubstantive changes for style and clarity.

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your
Committee on Finance that is attached to this report, your
Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No.
1616, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third
Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 1616, H.D. 1.
