H.D. 2
Honorable Scott K. Saiki
Speaker, House of Representatives
Twenty-Ninth State Legislature
Regular Session of 2018
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Consumer Protection & Commerce, to which was referred H.B. No. 2062, H.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO ATHLETIC TRAINERS,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to protect the health and safety of athletes in Hawaii by:
(1) Making permanent the requirements of Chapter 436H, Hawaii Revised Statutes, regulating athletic trainers; and
(2) Temporarily exempting from regulation athletic trainers temporarily accompanying teams to Hawaii for an athletic or sporting event from a state that does not regulate athletic trainers.
Your Committee has amended this measure by:
(1) Removing the provisions that temporarily exempted from regulation athletic trainers who are from a state that does not regulate athletic trainers;
(2) Changing the effective date to June 29, 2050, to encourage further discussion; and
(3) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for clarity, consistency, and style.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Consumer Protection & Commerce that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2062, H.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it be referred to your Committee on Finance in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 2062, H.D. 2.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Consumer Protection & Commerce,
