Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say
Speaker, House of Representatives

State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Public Safety, to which was referred H.B. No. 2549 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO A MAJOR DISASTER TRUST ACCOUNT,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this bill is to ensure adequate funding for disaster relief efforts by the Department of Defense (DOD) by:
(1) Designating federal reimbursement moneys for disaster relief as trust moneys and directing that they be deposited into a trust account under the control of DOD (Trust Account); and
(2) Appropriating $500,000 to be deposited into the Trust Account.
DOD supported this bill.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Public Safety that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2549 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to the Committee on Finance.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Public Safety,
