Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-First State Legislature

Regular Session of 2001

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Labor and Public Employment, to which was referred H.B. No. 577 entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT MAKING APPROPRIATIONS FOR STATE OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES EXCLUDED FROM COLLECTIVE BARGAINING,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this bill is to fund authorizations and appropriations for state officers and employees excluded from collective bargaining.

Your Committee finds that fund authorizations and appropriations by the Legislature are necessary to cover the expected cost of implementing salary adjustments and other cost items for excluded officers and employees.

Your Committee has amended this bill by:

(1) Inserting the sum of $1 for all appropriated amounts; and

(2) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for purposes of style, clarity, and consistency.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Labor and Public Employment that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 577, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 577, H.D. 1, and be referred to the Committee on Finance.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Labor and Public Employment,
