RE: H.B. No. 2206
Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say
Speaker, House of Representatives
Twenty-Second State Legislature
Regular Session of 2004
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Public Safety and Military Affairs, to which was referred H.B. No. 2206 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this bill is to enhance public safety in Hawaii by:
(1) Requiring the reporting of certain data relating to the sale of specified chemical precursors of controlled substances;
(2) Establishing a procedure for modifying the list of chemicals subject to controlled-substances reporting requirements; and
(3) Imposing additional penalties for persons evading the controlled-substances record-keeping or reporting requirements.
The Department of Public Safety testified in support of this bill. The Consumer Healthcare Products Association, Legislative Information Services of Hawaii, and Hawaii Food Industry Association opposed the measure.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Public Safety and Military Affairs that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2206 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to the Committee on Judiciary.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Public Safety and Military Affairs,
