H.D. 1
Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say
Speaker, House of Representatives
Twenty-Third State Legislature
Regular Session of 2005
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committees on Education and Higher Education, to which was referred H.C.R. No. 80 entitled:
"HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION REQUESTING THE AUDITOR TO ANALYZE THE PROBABLE EFFECTS OF PROPOSED REGULATION OF ATHLETE AGENTS AND ASSESS WHETHER ITS ENACTMENT IS CONSISTENT WITH STATE POLICY,"
beg leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this concurrent resolution is to protect student-athletes by requiring the registration, certification, and background check of athlete agents seeking to represent these student-athletes. Specifically, this measure requests the State Auditor to analyze the probable effects of the proposed regulation of athlete agents as contained in current legislation and assess whether the legislation would be consistent with State policy.
The Commission To Promote Uniform Legislation testified in support of this concurrent resolution. The Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs supported this measure in part.
Your Committees have amended this concurrent resolution by:
(1) Requesting the State Auditor to do a sunrise analysis prior to the enactment of the new regulatory measure, in accordance with section 26H-6, Hawaii Revised Statutes; and
(2) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for clarity, consistency, and style.
As affirmed by the records of votes of the members of your Committees on Education and Higher Education that are attached to this report, your Committees concur with the intent and purpose of H.C.R. No. 80, as amended herein, and recommend that it be referred to the Committee on Finance, in the form attached hereto as H.C.R. No. 80, H.D. 1.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committees on Education and Higher Education,
