Honorable Norman Mizuguchi
President of the Senate
Twentieth State Legislature
Regular Session of 2000
State of Hawaii

Sir:

     Your Committees on Transportation and Intergovernmental
Affairs and Commerce and Consumer Protection, to which was
referred H.B. No. 2349, H.D. 1, entitled: 

     "A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO INSURANCE,"

beg leave to report as follows:

     The purpose of the measure is to allow an insurer to recover
the amount of covered loss deductible that would have applied
from its insured whose conduct resulted in the inapplicability of
the covered loss deductibles.

     Testimony in support of the measure was received from the
Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs and Consumer Lawyers
of Hawaii.

     As affirmed by the records of votes of the members of your
Committees on Transportation and Intergovernmental Affairs and
Commerce and Consumer Protection that are attached to this
report, your Committees are in accord with the intent and purpose
of H.B. No. 2349, H.D. 1, and recommend that it pass Second
Reading and be referred to the Committee on Judiciary.
