Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Regular Session of 2000
State of Hawaii

Sir:

     Your Committee on Higher Education, to which was referred
H.B. No. 2060 entitled: 

     "A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII,"

begs leave to report as follows:

     The purpose of this bill is to authorize the University of
Hawaii community colleges to deposit their special fund revenues
into system special funds.
     
     The University of Hawaii and the University of Hawaii
Professional Assembly supported this bill.

     Your Committee finds that the Community Colleges require
flexibility to manage resources and operations in a more
effective and efficient manner.  Your Committee has amended this
bill to insure that its intent is achieved.  As amended, this
bill will provide the Community Colleges with the latitude to
utilize funds in a more comprehensive manner.

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your
Committee on Higher Education that is attached to this report,
your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B.
No. 2060, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second
Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 2060, H.D. 1, and
be referred to the Committee on Finance.
