STAND. COM. REP. NO. 2011
Honolulu, Hawaii
RE: S.B. No. 2289
Honorable Colleen Hanabusa
President of the Senate
Twenty-Fifth State Legislature
Regular Session of 2010
State of Hawaii
Madam:
Your Committee on Human Services, to which was referred S.B. No. 2289 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO CIVIL IDENTIFICATION,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to allow nursing home administrators to apply for state civil identification certificates on behalf of residents of the nursing home who cannot appear in person due to infirmity.
Testimony in support of this measure was presented by Maunalani Nursing and Rehabilitation Center. Testimony in opposition to this measure was presented by the Department of the Attorney General.
Written testimony presented to the Committee may be reviewed on the Legislature's website.
Your Committee finds that nursing homes should work with the Attorney General to develop procedures for the electronic transmission of fingerprints and photographs. Your Committee also finds that this measure will likely be a cost saving move for both the nursing homes and the taxpayers of this State, and encourages the community to suggest other settings in which this service can be offered.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Human Services that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2289 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to the Committee on Judiciary and Government Operations.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Human Services,
