STAND. COM. REP. NO. 559

 

Honolulu, Hawaii

                  

 

RE:    S.B. No. 101

       S.D. 1

 

 

 

Honorable Donna Mercado Kim

President of the Senate

Twenty-Eighth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2015

State of Hawaii

 

Madam:

 

     Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred S.B. No. 101 entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE BUDGET,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose and intent of this measure is to correct technical errors in Act 122, Session Laws of Hawaii 2014, known as the Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2014.

 

     Specifically, the measure corrects references to the amounts of revenue bond funds and federal funds that were originally appropriated in 1993, subsequently amended in 1994, and determined to be lapsed as part of the Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2014.

 

     Your Committee finds that it is important to correct erroneous amounts in the Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2014 so that the appropriate amounts of funds are lapsed.

 

     Your Committee has amended this measure by making a technical nonsubstantive amendment for the purpose of clarity and to conform to recommended drafting conventions.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Ways and Means that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 101, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 101, S.D. 1, and be placed on the calendar for Third Reading.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Ways and Means,
