RE: H.B. No. 2674

H.D. 1

Honorable Scott K. Saiki

Speaker, House of Representatives

Thirtieth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2020

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Judiciary, to which was referred H.B. No. 2674, H.D. 1, entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO MOTOR VEHICLE REGISTRATION,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this measure is to provide that any authorization by a county director of finance to accept supplemental motor vehicle registration documents in electronic form shall extend to all types of motor vehicles.

Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure from Servo Pacific Inc.; Hawaii Transportation Association; and B and C Trucking Co., Ltd.

Your Committee finds that registering motor vehicles, especially multiple motor vehicles, can be cumbersome for individuals or businesses. This measure allows the counties to take advantage of modern technology by authorizing the use of an electronic method for motor vehicle registration of all types of motor vehicles.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Judiciary that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2674, H.D. 1, and recommends that it pass Third Reading.

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

____________________________
