Sir:
Your Committee on Public Safety, Intergovernmental, and Military Affairs, to which was referred Governor's Message No. 712, submitting for study and consideration the nomination of:
Compact
Administrator for the Interstate Commission for Adult Offender Supervision
G.M. No. 712 |
BROOK MAMIZUKA, for a term to expire 03-04-2025, |
begs leave to report as follows:
Your Committee reviewed the personal history, resume, and statement submitted by Brook Mamizuka for service as the Compact Administrator for the Interstate Commission for Adult Offender Supervision.
Your Committee received testimony in support of the nomination for the appointment of Brook Mamizuka from the Judiciary and Hawaii Paroling Authority. Your Committee received testimony in opposition to the nomination for the appointment of Brook Mamizuka from two individuals.
Upon review of the testimony, your Committee finds that Brook Mamizuka's compassion, experience, and knowledge in the field of interstate adult supervision qualify her to be nominated for appointment as the Compact Administrator for the Interstate Commission for Adult Offender Supervision. Your Committee further finds that Ms. Mamizuka is currently the Social Services Manager for the Adult Client Service Branch of the First Circuit, which provides probation and probation-related services for the District, Family, and Circuit Courts. Ms. Mamizuka is also currently serving as Hawaii's Deputy Compact Administrator for the Hawaii Council for Interstate Adult Offender Supervision. Your Committee notes that testimony states that under Ms. Mamizuka's leadership and management, Hawaii will continue to fulfill its responsibilities to promote public safety, protect the rights of victims, control movement of offenders, provide for effective tracking of offenders, and engage in the supervision and rehabilitation of offenders. Your Committee therefore recommends that Ms. Mamizuka be appointed as the Compact Administrator for the Interstate Commission for Adult Offender Supervision based on her background, compassion, and professionalism.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Public Safety, Intergovernmental, and Military Affairs that is attached to this report, your Committee, after full consideration of the background, experience, and qualifications of the nominee, has found the nominee to be qualified for the position to which nominated and recommends that the Senate advise and consent to the nomination.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Public Safety, Intergovernmental, and Military Affairs,
