STAND. COM. REP. NO. 3007
Honolulu, Hawaii
RE: H.B. No. 1854
S.D. 2
Honorable Colleen Hanabusa
President of the Senate
Twenty-Fifth State Legislature
Regular Session of 2010
State of Hawaii
Madam:
Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred H.B. No. 1854, S.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO EDUCATION,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to remove unnecessary restrictions on the use of the food distribution program revolving fund.
Specifically, this measure allows the use of food distribution program revolving funds to support the administration and operation of the food distribution program pursuant to title 7 Code of Federal Regulations section 250.15.
The written comments may be reviewed on the Legislature's website.
Your Committee finds that unnecessary restrictions on the use of moneys in the food distribution program revolving fund place a great strain on the Department of Education's budget. Your Committee also finds that this measure would align the use of the food distribution program revolving fund with the allowable costs described in title 7 Code of Federal Regulations section 250.15.
Your Committee has amended this measure by changing the effective date to July 1, 2050, to facilitate further discussion on the measure.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Ways and Means that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 1854, S.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 1854, S.D. 2.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Ways and Means,
