RE: S.C.R. No. 132
H.D. 1
Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say
Speaker, House of Representatives
Twenty-Third State Legislature
Regular Session of 2005
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred S.C.R. No. 132 entitled:
"SENATE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION REQUESTING THE HEALTHCARE ASSOCIATION OF HAWAII TO ESTABLISH A TASK FORCE TO DESIGN A SYSTEM FOR REPORTING HOSPITAL ACQUIRED INFECTIONS TO THE PUBLIC,"
begs leave to report as follows:
As received by your Committee on Finance, the purpose of this concurrent resolution was to request the Healthcare Association of Hawaii to establish a task force to design a system for reporting hospital-acquired infections to the public.
In order to solicit public input, your Committee on Finance heard this concurrent resolution as a proposed draft, which replaced the current contents with the contents of house concurrent resolution (HCR) 103. HCR 103 requires the Office of the Auditor to conduct a management, program, and financial audit of the Department of Hawaiian Home Lands.
Your Committee notes that testimony in support of HCR 103 was received by the State Representative of the 44th District, the Department of Hawaiian Home Lands and an individual at a hearing held on March 30, 2005 by your Committee on Hawaiian Affairs.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Finance that is attached to this report, your Committee concurs with the intent and purpose of S.C.R. No. 132, as amended herein, and recommends its adoption in the form attached hereto as S.C.R. No. 132, H.D. 1.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Finance,
____________________________ DWIGHT TAKAMINE, Chair |
