STAND. COM. REP. NO. 645
Honolulu, Hawaii
, 2005
RE: S.B. No. 1170
S.D. 2
Honorable Robert Bunda
President of the Senate
Twenty-Third State Legislature
Regular Session of 2005
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Judiciary and Hawaiian Affairs, to which was referred S.B. No. 1170, S.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO ELECTRONIC COMMERCE,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to establish the Hawaii anti-phishing task force to review other jurisdictions' efforts to regulate and curtail electronic commerce related criminal activities.
Your Committee finds that this measure addresses the recent phenomenon of "phishing", whereby confidential personal information is divulged under false pretenses and often used for identity theft. This measure convenes a task force with the responsibility of reviewing other jurisdictions' approaches to curtailing electronic commerce-related criminal activity and submitting findings and recommendations to the Legislature prior to the convening of the 2006 legislative session.
Your Committee has amended the bill by making a technical amendment.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Judiciary and Hawaiian Affairs that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 1170, S.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 1170, S.D. 2.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Judiciary and Hawaiian Affairs,
____________________________ COLLEEN HANABUSA, Chair |
