                                 RE: H.B. No. 2418
                                     




Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say
Speaker, House of Representatives
Twentieth State Legislature
Regular Session of 2000
State of Hawaii

Sir:

     Your Committee on Judiciary and Hawaiian Affairs, to which
was referred H.B. No. 2418 entitled: 

     "A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO CERTIFICATES OF
     IDENTIFICATION,"

begs leave to report as follows:

     The purpose of this bill is to improve service to the public
by changing expiration dates of State civil identification cards
to coincide with cardholder birthdays, and to allow renewal by
mail for the elderly.

     Testimony in support of this measure was received from the
State Attorney General, Executive Office on Aging, Policy
Advisory Board for Elder Affairs, and Government Efficiency
Teams, Inc.

     Your Committee finds that the provisions of this bill create
a more practical and efficient means of renewing civil
identification cards. 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your
Committee on Judiciary and Hawaiian Affairs that is attached to
this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and
purpose of H.B. No. 2418 and recommends that it pass Second
Reading and be referred to the Committee on Finance.
