STAND. COM. REP. 1338

Honolulu, Hawaii

, 2003

RE: S.B. No. 51

 

 

 

Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Second State Legislature

Regular Session of 2003

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Judiciary, to which was referred S.B. No. 51 entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO COMMERCIAL DRIVER'S LICENSES,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of the bill is to authorize the director of transportation to grant an intrastate waiver for insulin users to obtain a commercial driver's license.

The Department of Transportation and a concerned individual testified in support of this bill.

Your Committee finds that the adoption of rules concerning managed care of health problems should address concerns over what otherwise would have been a physical disqualification for receiving a commercial driver's license.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Judiciary that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 51 and recommends that it pass Third Reading.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Judiciary,
