                                   RE:  S.B. No. 2931
                                        




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

Sir:

     Your Committee on Health and Human Services, to which was
referred S.B. No. 2931 entitled: 

     "A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES,"

begs leave to report as follows:

     The purpose of this measure is to make amendments to
Hawaii's Uniform Controlled Substances Act to be consistent with
changes in federal law.

     Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure
from the Department of Public Safety.

     This measure revises the chemical designations of certain
controlled substances.  Your Committee finds that these changes
are necessary to conform with federal law on controlled
substances, as revised.

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your
Committee on Health and Human Services that is attached to this
report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose
of S.B. No. 2931 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and
be referred to the Committee on Judiciary.
