Sir:

Your Committee on Transportation, to which was referred H.B. No. 2161 entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO VEHICLE INSPECTION STATIONS,"

The Maui Police Department testified in support of this measure. The Department of Transportation opposed this measure.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Transportation that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2161 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to your Committee on Finance.

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