begs leave to report as follows:
Your Committee has reviewed the personal history, résumé, and statements submitted by the nominee, and finds the nominee to have the necessary qualifications to be appointed to the position of nomination.
Testimony in support of STANWOOD H. KANNA was received from two individuals. Dr. Kanna has been engaged in the practice of dentistry for seventeen years. He serves as a staff member to the Kauai Veterans Memorial Hospital and as a member of the hospital's Community Advisory Board. Dr. Kanna is actively involved in numerous professional and community organizations. He serves as Vice Chair of the Hawaii Islands Oral Health Task Force. Dr. Kanna earned his DDS from Loyola University School of Dentistry in Chicago, Illinois, and his BS from the University of Oregon.
Your Committee finds that the nominee possesses both the experience and knowledge necessary to serve on the Board of Dental Examiners. The nominee is the Kauai representative to the board. The nominee previously served a four-year term and is currently an interim appointee serving as the Chairperson of the Board of Dental Examiners and thus is very familiar with the mandates of the board.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Commerce, Consumer Protection and Housing that is attached to this report, your Committee, after full consideration of the background, experience, and qualifications of the nominee, has found the nominee to be qualified for the position to which nominated and recommends that the Senate advise and consent to the nomination.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Commerce, Consumer Protection and Housing,
