A BILL FOR AN ACT
RELATING TO THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
SECTION 1. The legislature finds that the equitable reimbursement for services rendered to the University of Hawaii is a matter of statewide concern. High salaries for executives and managers affect the fiscal health of the State, while low salaries for graduate assistants are often inadequate to cover the costs of living in Hawaii.
The purpose of this Act is to reduce executive and managerial salaries at the University of Hawaii for fiscal year 2016-2017 to the extent necessary to provide $4,000,000 in the same fiscal year for graduate assistant salaries.
The legislature intends for the funds provided for graduate assistant salaries pursuant to this Act to be in addition to any other sums appropriated, allotted, expended, or otherwise provided for graduate assistant salaries.
SECTION 2. Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, the salaries for all executive and managerial positions at pay grade 12 or higher at the University of Hawaii for fiscal year 2016-2017 shall be reduced by an equal percentage, to the extent necessary to provide $4,000,000 in the same fiscal year for the salaries for graduate assistant positions at the University of Hawaii.
SECTION 3. No later than twenty days prior to the convening of the regular session of 2017, the University of Hawaii shall submit a report to the legislature regarding the method by which the requirements of section 2 of this Act were accomplished.
SECTION 4. This Act shall take effect on July 1, 2091.
