RE: S.B. No. 62

S.D. 1

Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi

President of the Senate

Thirtieth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2020

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Technology, to which was referred S.B. No. 62 entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO TECHNOLOGY,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose and intent of this measure is to amend the law relating to technology.

Prior to the hearing on this measure, your Committee posted and made available for public review a proposed S.D. 1, which amends this measure by deleting its contents and replacing it with language to require the Legislature, state departments, and boards and commissions to livestream its public hearings and develop procedures for receiving remote testimony.

Your Committee has amended this measure by adopting the proposed S.D. 1.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Technology that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 62, as amended herein, and recommends that it be recommitted to your Committee on Technology, in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 62, S.D. 1, for further consideration.

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