Regular Session of 2008
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Labor & Public Employment, to which was referred H.B. No. 2775, H.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE EXECUTIVE OFFICE ON AGING,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this bill is to attract and retain highly qualified individuals for the position of director of the Executive Office on Aging by allowing the appointing authority to set the director's salary.
The Department of Health testified in support of this bill.
Your Committee notes that allowing the appointing authority to determine the appropriate compensation for the director would better attract and retain highly qualified individuals.
Your Committee has amended this bill by changing its effective date to July 1, 2059, to encourage further discussion.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Labor & Public Employment that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2775, H.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it be referred to the Committee on Finance in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 2775, H.D. 2.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Labor & Public Employment,
