RE: H.B. No. 1856
H.D. 1
S.D. 1
Honorable Robert Bunda
President of the Senate
Twenty-Second State Legislature
Regular Session of 2004
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred H.B. No. 1856, H.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to appropriate funds to the University of Hawaii to allow the university's student caucus to hold meetings with its member campuses and constituents.
Your Committee finds that the University of Hawaii student caucus is officially recognized by the Board of Regents and is included in the systemwide organizational chart. Your Committee further finds that the student caucus has demonstrated their capability to be an effective and independent student voice. Their knowledge and perspective in the formulation of programs and educational policy issues have benefited both the University of Hawaii and the State.
Your Committee has amended this measure by changing the appropriation amount from $1 to a blank amount in order to promote continued discussion of the matter.
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. 1856, H.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 1856, H.D. 1, S.D. 1.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Ways and Means,
____________________________ BRIAN T. TANIGUCHI, Chair |
