Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Housing, to which was referred S.B. No. 84 entitled:

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this measure is to expand the scope of the definition of "public housing project" to include any housing project controlled or managed by the Hawaii Public Housing Authority pursuant to federally assisted housing.

No. 84, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 84, H.D. 1, and be referred to the Committee on Finance.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Housing,
