Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Third State Legislature

Regular Session of 2006

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Transportation, to which was referred S.C.R. No. 44 entitled:

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this concurrent resolution is to improve the planning and implementation of capital improvement projects (CIPs) undertaken by the Department of Transportation (DOT) by requesting the Auditor to conduct a management audit of DOT's CIPs.

DOT submitted comments on this measure.

Your Committee finds that an audit of DOT's management of CIPs has never been conducted. Conducting a management audit may improve the efficiency of management of DOT's CIPs, and assist in their expeditious completion.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Transportation that is attached to this report, your Committee concurs with the intent and purpose of S.C.R. No. 44 and recommends that it be referred to the Committee on Finance.
