STAND. COM. REP. NO. 2503
Honolulu, Hawaii
RE: S.B. No. 2250
S.D. 1
Honorable Shan S. Tsutsui
President of the Senate
Twenty-Sixth State Legislature
Regular Session of 2012
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Judiciary and Labor, to which was referred S.B. No. 2250, S.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO PAROLE,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose and intent of this measure is to encourage the Hawaii Paroling Authority to work with offenders in the community by authorizing the Hawaii Paroling Authority to use a continuum of administrative sanctions in lieu of revocation of parole when a parolee violates a term or condition of parole.
Your Committee did not receive any testimony on this measure.
Your Committee finds that the continuum of administrative sanctions in this measure gives the Hawaii Paroling Authority a broad range of appropriate alternatives to revocation of parole, from modifications or additions to the terms and conditions of parole to the imposition of other appropriate and available sanctions. Your Committee further finds that these alternative sanctions are extensive, including reimprisonment, community service, house arrest or home detention, electronic surveillance or monitoring, and treatment and counseling services.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Judiciary and Labor that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2250, S.D. 1, and recommends that it pass Third Reading.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Judiciary and Labor,
