STAND. COM. REP. NO. 3076
Honolulu, Hawaii
RE: H.B. No. 2007
H.D. 2
Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi
President of the Senate
Twenty-Eighth State Legislature
Regular Session of 2016
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Government Operations, to which was referred H.B. No. 2007, H.D. 2, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO GOVERNMENT OPERATIONS,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose and intent of this measure is to improve government operations and efficiency by establishing a Lean Government Advisory Board within the Department of Human Resources Development.
Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure from the Department of Human Resources Development. Your Committee received comments on this measure from the Department of Budget and Finance and Hawaii Government Employees Association, AFSCME Local 152, AFL-CIO.
Your Committee finds that New York has been successful in the implementation of lean concepts in government with a focus on the goals of creating efficiencies and promoting effectiveness of government operations and services, rather than cutting positions. Implementation of this measure will further ensure the public that the Legislature is making good use of the resources to which the Legislature has been entrusted.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Government Operations that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2007, H.D. 2, and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to your Committee on Ways and Means.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Government Operations,
|
