                                   RE:  S.B. No. 27
                                        




Honorable Norman Mizuguchi
President of the Senate
Twentieth State Legislature
Regular Session of 1999
State of Hawaii

Sir:

     Your Committee on Transportation and Intergovernmental
Affairs, to which was referred S.B. No. 27 entitled: 

     "A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO MOTOR VEHICLE REGISTRATION,"

begs leave to report as follows:
     
     The purpose of this measure is to require an owner of a
vehicle in storage to present a certificate of inspection issued
after the recording of storage, only if the certificate of
inspection expired during the storage period and the vehicle is
to be removed.

     Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure
from one individual.

     Your Committee finds that the law now requires a new
inspection certificate, even if the current one is still valid.
Your Committee believes this creates an undue burden on the owner
and is in support of this measure.

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your
Committee on Transportation and Intergovernmental Affairs that is
attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the
intent and purpose of S.B. No. 27 and recommends that it pass
Second Reading and be placed on the calendar for Third Reading.
