                                   RE:  S.C.R. No. 141
                                        S.D. 1




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

Sir:

     Your Committees on Labor and Environment and Education and
Technology, to which was referred S.C.R. No. 141 entitled:

     "SENATE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION SUPPORTING THE FULL
     IMPLEMENTATION OF THE SCHOOL-TO-WORK OPPORTUNITIES PROGRAM
     THROUGH THE DESIGNATION OF STATE WORKSITES AS SCHOOL-TO-WORK
     SPONSORING AGENCIES,"

beg leave to report as follows:

     The purpose of this measure is to designate state worksites
as School-to-Work sponsoring agencies.

     Testimony in support of this measure was received from the
Department of Education, the University of Hawaii, and the
School-to-Work Executive Council.

     Your Committees find that designating state worksites as
School-to-Work sponsoring agencies would provide a larger
spectrum of career choices and experiences for interested
students.  Your Committees also feel that designating county
worksites as School-to-Work sponsoring agencies will more fully
implement the School-to-Work system.

     After consulting with the chairperson of your Committee on
Transportation and Intergovernmental Affairs, your Committees
have amended this measure by adding a provision requesting that
the Mayors of each county designate county worksites as
School-to-Work sponsoring agencies, and amending the title to
reflect this addition.

     As affirmed by the records of votes of the members of your
Committees on Labor and Environment and Education and Technology
that are attached to this report, your Committees concur with the
intent and purpose of S.C.R. No. 141, as amended herein, and
recommend that it be referred to the Committee on Ways and Means,
in the form attached hereto as S.C.R. No. 141, S.D. 1.

                                   Respectfully submitted on
                                   behalf of the members of the
                                   Committees on Labor and
                                   Environment and Education and
                                   Technology,
