STAND. COM. REP. NO.1363
Honolulu, Hawaii
, 2003
RE: H.B. No. 1342
H.D. 1
S.D. 1
Honorable Robert Bunda
President of the Senate
Twenty-Second State Legislature
Regular Session of 2003
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred H.B. No. 1342, H.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT MAKING AN APPROPRIATION FOR YOUTH SERVICES,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to appropriate funds for youth service centers.
Your Committee finds that funding youth service centers contributes to positive youth development. The youth service centers provide safe environments for Hawaii's youth, giving them a wide variety of opportunities, experiences, and services. Although the youth service centers strive to provide all youth with opportunities and competencies that will help them grow into successful young adults, the centers are particularly critical to youth who are overrepresented in the juvenile justice system.
Upon further consideration, your Committee has amended this bill by changing the effective date and changing the amount of funds appropriated to a blank amount to facilitate continued discussion on this measure.
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. 1342, H.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 1342, H.D. 1, S.D. 1.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Ways and Means,
____________________________ BRIAN T. TANIGUCHI, Chair |
