STAND. COM. REP. NO. 2023

Honolulu, Hawaii

RE: H.B. No. 990

H.D. 1

S.D. 1

Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi

President of the Senate

Thirtieth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2019

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred H.B. No. 990, H.D. 1, entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE FACILITIES,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose and intent of this measure is to clarify certain provisions related to the use or rental of Department of Defense facilities.

More specifically, this measure:

(1) Clarifies the activities for which and entities to which the Adjutant General may permit the use or rental of Department of Defense facilities; and

(2) Requires that the net proceeds received from any uses or rentals of Department of Defense facilities, rather than all moneys from these uses or rentals, be deposited into the general fund of the State.

No written comments were received on this measure.

Your Committee finds that requiring the Department of Defense to deposit into the general fund of the State the net proceeds received from the uses or rentals of the department's facilities rather than all moneys received from these uses or rentals will allow the department to cover costs directly related to the use or rental of its facilities.

Your Committee has amended this measure by changing the effective date from July 1, 2050, to upon its approval.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Ways and Means that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 990, H.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 990, H.D. 1, S.D. 1.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Ways and Means,
