                                   RE:  S.B. No. 2312
                                        S.D. 1




Honorable Norman Mizuguchi
President of the Senate
Twentieth State Legislature
Regular Session of 2000
State of Hawaii

Sir:

     Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred S.B.
No. 2312 entitled: 

     "A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO A HOISTING MACHINE OPERATORS
     CERTIFICATION REVOLVING FUND,"

begs leave to report as follows:

     The purpose of this bill is to appropriate funds for
certification and related activities concerning hoisting machine
operators.

     Specifically, this bill transfers general funds to the
hoisting machine operators certification revolving fund and
appropriates funds from the revolving fund for certification and
related activities.

     Your Committee finds that supplemental revenue sources are
needed to maintain the activities of the hoisting machine
operators advisory board.

     Your Committee has amended this measure by changing the
appropriation amounts to blank amounts in order to promote
continued discussion of the matter.

     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.

 
a                                                      SB2312 SD1
