Sirs:

 

     Your Committee on Conference on the disagreeing vote of the Senate to the amendments proposed by the House of Representatives in S.B. No. 1500, H.D. 1, entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO ANATOMICAL GIFTS,"

 

having met, and after full and free discussion, has agreed to recommend and does recommend to the respective Houses the final passage of this bill in an amended form.

 

     The purpose of this measure is to amend the Revised Uniform Anatomical Gift Act by requiring a recipient to accept or reject an anatomical gift if that gift is medically suitable for transplantation, therapy, research, or education and regardless of whether another person, including family members of the donor, has made an anatomical gift.

 

     Your Committee on Conference finds that this measure is intended to improve the quality of medical education in Hawaii by ensuring that the proper individuals and entities fulfill their obligation to effectuate anatomical gifts.

 

     Accordingly, your Committee on Conference has amended this measure by changing the effective date to upon approval.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the managers of your Committee on Conference that is attached to this report, your Committee on Conference is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 1500, H.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Final Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 1500, H.D. 1, C.D. 1.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the managers:
