State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Judiciary & Hawaiian Affairs, to which was referred H.B. No. 2336, H.D. 1, entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE PHOTO RED LIGHT IMAGING DETECTOR SYSTEMS PROGRAM,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this measure is to:

(1) Clarify certain provisions in chapter 291J, Hawaii Revised Statutes, to better reflect the legislative intent of the Photo Red Light Imaging Detector Systems Program; and

(2) Amend Act 30, Session Laws of Hawaii 2020, as amended, to account for changes in fiscal needs based on the current timetable of the Photo Red Light Imaging Detector Systems Program.

Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure from the Department of Transportation, Department of the Prosecuting Attorney of the City and County of Honolulu, and Honolulu Police Department. Your Committee received testimony in opposition to this measure from one individual.

Your Committee finds that this measure clarifies various statutes related to the Red Light Imaging Detector Systems pilot program and adjusts funding and applicable dates to correlate with the pilot program's current timeline.

Your Committee has amended this measure by making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for the purposes of clarity, consistency, and style.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Judiciary & Hawaiian Affairs that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2336, H.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it be referred to your Committee on Finance in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 2336, H.D. 2.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Judiciary & Hawaiian Affairs,
