RE: H.B. No. 62
Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say
Speaker, House of Representatives
Twenty-Fifth State Legislature
Regular Session of 2009
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Transportation, to which was referred H.B. No. 62 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO TRAFFIC COURT RECORDS,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this bill is to improve government services by making it easier for the public to obtain certified court documents by:
(1) Allowing the traffic violations bureau of the district courts, upon request via the Judiciary website, to furnish certified traffic abstracts and certified traffic records via online requests after verification of the requestor's identity; and
(2) Allowing the Judiciary and traffic violations bureaus of the district courts to collect a fee, not to exceed $7, for the processing of these reports.
The Judiciary supported the intent of this bill.
The increased use of electronic media to conduct business, including government business, has grown over the past decade. Allowing individuals to electronically obtain traffic abstracts and traffic court records increases the public's accessibility to court documents.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Transportation that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 62 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to the Committee on Judiciary.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Transportation,
