STAND. COM. REP. NO.3245
Honolulu, Hawaii
, 2002
RE: H.B. No. 2506
H.D. 1
S.D. 1
Honorable Robert Bunda
President of the Senate
Twenty-First State Legislature
Regular Session of 2002
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred H.B. No. 2506, H.D. 1, S.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO VITAL STATISTICS,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to repeal the requirement that the Department of Health divide the State into public health statistics registration districts that conform to the political subdivisions.
Additionally, this bill requires "local designated representatives" (rather than "local agents") of the Department of Health to process certificates and permits pertaining to births and deaths in a county.
Your Committee finds that this measure will thus streamline and centralize documentation relating to vital statistics.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Ways and Means that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2506, H.D. 1, S.D. 1, and recommends that it pass Third Reading.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Ways and Means,
____________________________ BRIAN T. TANIGUCHI, Chair |
