                                   RE:  S.B. No. 1011
                                        




Honorable Norman Mizuguchi
President of the Senate
Twentieth State Legislature
Regular Session of 1999
State of Hawaii

Sir:

     Your Committee on Education and Technology, to which was
referred S.B. No. 1011 entitled: 

     "A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE STATE FOUNDATION ON
     CULTURE AND THE ARTS,"

begs leave to report as follows:

     The purpose of this measure is to clarify the roles of the
State Foundation on Culture and the Arts commission, executive
director, and foundation staff.  This measure also specifies that
agencies receiving capital improvement appropriations are
responsible for calculating the one percent due to the works of
art special fund.

     Testimony in support of this measure was submitted by the
State Auditor and the State Foundation on Culture and the Arts.

     Your Committee finds that defining the role of the
commission as a policy-making body and distinguishing the work of
the commission from that of the executive director and other
foundation staff will assist the commission in directing the work
of the foundation.  

     Your Committee further finds that specifying agency
responsibility for calculating the one percent due to the Works
of Art Special Fund, for initiating transfers to the fund, and
for monitoring compliance with the law will lessen the confusion
in the interactions between the agencies receiving the
appropriations, the state comptroller, and the foundation.

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your
Committee on Education and Technology that is attached to this
report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose
of S.B. No. 1011 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and
be referred to the Committee on Ways and Means.

                                   Respectfully submitted on
                                   behalf of the members of the
                                   Committee on Education and
                                   Technology,



                                   ______________________________
