STAND. COM. REP. NO. 419

Honolulu, Hawaii

, 2021

RE: H.B. No. 1113

Honorable Scott K. Saiki

Speaker, House of Representatives

Thirty-First State Legislature

Regular Session of 2021

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Health, Human Services, & Homelessness, to which was referred H.B. No. 1113 entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO NON-GENERAL FUNDS,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this measure is to:

(1) Reclassify the Donations for Social Services Trust Account from a trust account to a trust fund; and

(2) Abolish the Kahikolu Ohana O Waianae Project Trust Fund.

Your Committee received comments on this measure from the Department of Human Services.

Your Committee finds that the Donations for Social Services Trust Account does not meet the criteria of a trust account because it functions more like a trust fund. Your Committee further finds that Kahikolu Ohana O Waianae Project Trust Fund no longer serves the purposes for which it was originally established.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Health, Human Services, & Homelessness that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 1113 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to your Committee on Finance.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Health, Human Services, & Homelessness,
