Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-First State Legislature

Regular Session of 2002

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Judiciary and Hawaiian Affairs, to which was referred H.B. No. 1727 entitled:

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of the bill is to allow the holder of a driver's license instruction permit to renew the permit 30 days prior to and up to 90 days after the expiration date of the permit.

Your Committee received testimony in support of the measure from the Department of Customer Services of the City and County of Honolulu. The Department of Transportation testified in support of the intent of the measure.

Your Committee finds that although renewal of a driver's license instruction permit is mentioned within the instruction permit statutes, there is no mention of the time period within which the permit may be renewed. This measure would specify the time period for permit renewal.

Your Committee has amended this bill by making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for purposes of clarity, consistency, and style.

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 is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 1727, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 1727, H.D. 1.
