                                     S.D. 1




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 S.C.R. No. 166, S.D. 1, entitled:

     "SENATE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION REQUESTING THE DEPARTMENT OF
     EDUCATION AND YOUTH ORGANIZATIONS TO ACCESS THE WEBSITE OF
     THE HAWAII CRIMINAL JUSTICE DATA CENTER TO OBTAIN SEX
     OFFENDER INFORMATION,"

begs leave to report as follows:

     The purpose of this concurrent resolution is to request that
the Department of Education (DOE) and youth organizations access
the website of the Hawaii Criminal Justice Data Center to obtain
sex offender information.

     Your Committee finds that the Criminal History Data Center
is in the process of establishing a website that will enable the
general public to quickly and easily access public sex offender
registration information.  Your Committee believes that this
website will be of invaluable use to the DOE and to all youth
service organizations.

     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 concurs with the intent and purpose
of S.C.R. No. 166, S.D. 1, and recommends its adoption.
