RE: H.B. No. 2578
H.D. 1
Honorable Shan S. Tsutsui
President of the Senate
Twenty-Sixth State Legislature
Regular Session of 2012
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred H.B. No. 2578, H.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE ADVISORY COUNCIL FOR COMMUNITY SERVICES,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose and intent of this measure is to improve government efficiency by abolishing the Advisory Council for Community Services.
Written comments in support of this measure were submitted by the Department of Labor and Industrial Relations.
Your Committee finds that the Advisory Council for Community Services currently has no appointed members. In fact, the Advisory Council has been inactive for almost a decade and no new members have been appointed. Abolishing the essentially defunct Advisory Council would contribute to streamlining government by reducing unnecessary bureaucracy.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Ways and Means that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2578, H.D. 1, and recommends that it pass Third Reading.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Ways and Means,
|
