Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Twentieth State Legislature
Regular Session of 1999
State of Hawaii

Sir:

     Your Committee on Legislative Management, to which was
referred H.B. No. 1640 entitled: 

     "A BILL FOR AN ACT MAKING APPROPRIATIONS FOR UNIFORM LAWS,"

begs leave to report as follows:

     The purpose of this bill is to appropriate funds for
Hawaii's contribution to the costs of the National Conference of
Commissioners on Uniform State Laws, and for related registration
and travel expenses.

     Testimony commenting on the bill was received from the State
Commission to Promote Uniform Legislation.

     Your Committee finds that the continued support of and
participation in the National Conference of Commissioners on
Uniform State Laws by this State is essential to continue the
work of drafting and revising uniform laws concerning matters of
state interest.  

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your
Committee on Legislative Management that is attached to this
report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose
of H.B. No. 1640 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and
be referred to the Committee on Finance.
