Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Fourth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2007

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Human Services & Housing, to which was referred H.B. No. 1244 entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE CHILD SUPPORT ENFORCEMENT AGENCY,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this bill is to comply with federal requirements by requiring the Child Support Enforcement Agency to impose an annual fee of $25 for child support enforcement services furnished in cases where:

 

     (1)  The custodial parent has never received public assistance for the support of a child; and

 

     (2)  On behalf of the custodial parent, the State has collected at least $500 in child support. 

 

     The Attorney General supported this bill. 

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Human Services & Housing that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 1244 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 Human Services & Housing,
