RE:   H.R. No. 21

Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Fifth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2010

State of Hawaii

Sir:

     Your Committee on Legislative Management, to which was referred H.R. No. 21 entitled:

"HOUSE RESOLUTION REQUESTING THE AUDITOR TO PERFORM A FINANCIAL AND MANAGEMENT AUDIT OF THE CHILD SUPPORT ENFORCEMENT AGENCY,"

begs leave to report as follows:

     The purpose of this resolution is to ensure that the Child Support Enforcement Agency (CSEA) is helping families by promoting family self-sufficiency and child well-being.  This measure seeks to find ways to reduce CSEA's caseworker-to-caseload ratio by requesting the Auditor to conduct a financial and management audit of that agency.

     The Department of the Attorney General offered comments.

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Legislative Management that is attached to this report, your Committee concurs with the intent and purpose of H.R. No. 21 and recommends that it be referred to the Committee on Finance.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Legislative Management,
