RE: H.B. No. 1050
H.D. 1
Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say
Speaker, House of Representatives
Twenty-Second State Legislature
Regular Session of 2003
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Legislative Management, to which was referred H.B. No. 1050 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO CRIME,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this bill is to ensure public trust in elected officials by requiring:
(1) The forfeiture of a public office at the time of a felony conviction; and
(2) The termination of non-salary employment benefits as of the date of the commission of the felony for elected officials who are convicted of a felony.
The State Ethics Commission testified in support of this measure.
Your Committee finds that public servants must be held to the highest ethical standards.
This bill has been amended by making technical, nonsubstantive amendments to correct technical drafting errors.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Legislative Management that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 1050, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 1050, H.D. 1, and be referred to the Committee on Judiciary.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Legislative Management,
|
