State of Hawaii

Sir:

     Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred H.B. No. 1005, H.D. 1, entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO CHILD SUPPORT ENFORCEMENT,"

begs leave to report as follows:

     The purpose of this bill is to bring the State into compliance with Title IV-D of the federal Social Security Act that requires the provision of child support services to certain tribal agencies and foreign countries by, among other things, defining "other state" in the State Child Support Enforcement Law to include certain tribal agencies and foreign countries.

     The Department of the Attorney General supported this bill.

     Your Committee has amended this bill by making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for clarity, consistency, and style.

     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. 1005, H.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 1005, H.D. 2.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Finance,
