Report Title: Tobacco Settlement

Description: Provides that funds received by DOH from the Tobacco Settlement for health promotion and disease prevention programs shall not supplant or diminish the funding of existing programs. Establishes reporting requirements. Transfers 35% of the tobacco settlement moneys to the newly established DOH Tobacco Special Fund, without an appropriation act or budget proviso, and clarifies that these moneys can only be used for the Healthy Hawaii Initiative and children's health insurance programs. Adds one member of the House and one member of the Senate to the DOH advisory group. Exempts the DOH Tobacco Special Fund from requirements of sections 36-27 and 36-30. (HB2277 CD1)
