STAND. COM. REP. NO.99991
Honolulu, Hawaii
, 2001
RE: S.B. No. 1362
S.D. 2
H.D. 1
Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say
Speaker, House of Representatives
Twenty-First State Legislature
Regular Session of 2001
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Education, to which was referred S.B. No. 1362, S.D. 2, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO COACHES,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to:
(1) Appropriate funds to increase the base allocations of coaches who are employed by the Department of Education in a teaching capacity by one hundred percent and by fifty per cent for coaches who are not employed by the department in a teaching capacity; and
(2) Require that the allocation increase is commensurate with the percentage increase collectively bargained for teachers.
The Athletic Directors and Coaches Association supported the bill. The Department of Education supported the intent of the bill.
Your Committee recognizes that 1990 was the last time that any raise in compensation was awarded to coaches. Your Committee believes that it is time to ensure adequate compensation for Department of Education coaches.
Your Committee has amended this measure by changing the appropriation to $1 to further facilitate discussion.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Education that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 1362, S.D. 2, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 1362, S.D. 2, H.D. 1, and be referred to the Committee on Finance.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Education,
|
