Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Fifth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2010

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Tourism, Culture, & International Affairs, to which was referred H.R. No. 102 entitled:

 

"HOUSE RESOLUTION REQUESTING THE HAWAII TOURISM AUTHORITY, IN COLLABORATION WITH THE HAWAII BOXING COMMISSION, TO CONDUCT A STUDY TO DETERMINE THE FEASIBILITY OF BRINGING WORLD-CLASS BOXING EVENTS TO HAWAII,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this resolution is to request the Hawaii Tourism Authority (HTA), in collaboration with the Hawaii Boxing Commission, to conduct a study to determine the feasibility of bringing world-class boxing events to Hawaii.

 

     The Hawaii State Boxing Commission and a concerned individual supported this resolution.  HTA provided comments.

 

     Your Committee has amended this resolution by:

 

     (1)  Amending its title to read:  "REQUESTING THE HAWAII TOURISM AUTHORITY, IN COLLABORATION WITH THE HAWAII BOXING COMMISSION AND OTHER RELATED PARTIES, TO CONTINUE TO PURSUE BRINGING WORLD-CLASS BOXING EVENTS TO HAWAII";

 

     (2)  Requesting HTA to continue to pursue bringing world-class boxing events to Hawaii, instead of conducting a study;

 

     (3)  Adding the Chief Executive Officer of Top Rank and President of Golden Boy Promotions to the list of recipients of certified copies of the concurrent resolution; and

 

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

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Tourism, Culture, & International Affairs that is attached to this report, your Committee concurs with the intent and purpose of H.R. No. 102, as amended herein, and recommends that it be referred to the Committee on Finance in the form attached hereto as H.R. No. 102, H.D. 1.

 

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Tourism, Culture, & International Affairs,
