"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE CENTER FOR OKINAWAN STUDIES,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

     (1)  Appropriating $60,000 in general funds for the full-time equivalent Okinawan studies librarian position at the University of Hawaii at Manoa library; and

 

     (2)  Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for clarity, consistency, and style.


     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Higher Education that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 1025, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 1025, H.D. 1, and be referred to the Committee on Finance.
