Sir:
Your Committee on Judiciary, to which was referred S.B. No. 2188, S.D. 1, H.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO A COMMISSION ON FATHERHOOD,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this bill is to amend the composition of the State Commission on Fatherhood by:
(1) Removing the Director of the Office of Children and Youth; and
(2) Adding the Director of Public Safety and an administrator of the Family Courts as ex-officio members.
The Department of Human Services, State Commission on Fatherhood, and Hawaii Coalition for Dads supported this bill. The Judiciary opposed this measure in part.
Your Committee has amended this bill by:
(1) Changing the effective date to July 1, 2096, to encourage further discussion; and
(2) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for clarity, consistency, and style.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Judiciary that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2188, S.D. 1, H.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 2188, S.D. 1, H.D. 2.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Judiciary,
