STAND. COM. REP. NO. 1688
Honolulu, Hawaii
RE: H.B. No. 513
Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi
President of the Senate
Thirty-First State Legislature
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committees on Ways and Means and Judiciary, to which was referred H.B. No. 513 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE STATE CAPITOL MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE,"
beg leave to report as follows:
The purpose and intent of this measure is to dissolve the State Capitol Management Committee that was established pursuant to Act 97, Session Laws of Hawaii 2014, for the purpose of overseeing and managing the State Capitol and its grounds and facilities.
Your Committees received written comments in support of this measure from the Department of Accounting and General Services.
Your Committees find that the State Capitol Management Committee has not convened subsequent to September 2018, the date of the most recent meeting for which there is a record of published minutes. Your Committees further find that, since that time, the Department of Accounting and General Services has continued to operate and maintain the State Capitol through ongoing projects and operations, including deferred maintenance projects. Your Committees note that the measure specifies that all policies and procedures established by the management committee shall remain in full force and effect until amended or repealed by the Department of Accounting and General Services, Governor, Senate, or House of Representatives, as applicable. Your Committees believe that the dissolution of the management committee will allow time and resources to be more effectively directed toward other efforts that require attention.
As affirmed by the records of votes of the members of your Committees on Ways and Means and Judiciary that are attached to this report, your Committees are in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 513, and recommend that it pass Third Reading.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committees on Ways and Means and Judiciary,
