Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred H.B. No. 1294 entitled:

The purpose of this bill is to provide for better management of the Employer-Union Health Benefits Trust Fund (EUTF) by providing an appropriate, cost-neutral adjustment of the base monthly contributions for retiree benefit plans, in the event that the EUTF Board of Trustees adopts a revised rate structure for its retiree benefit plans.
The Hawaii EUTF and Department of Budget and Finance testified in support of this bill.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Finance that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 1294 and recommends that it pass Third Reading.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Finance,
