STAND. COM. REP. NO. 2801

Honolulu, Hawaii

RE: S.B. No. 2879

S.D. 1

 

 

Honorable Robert Bunda

President of the Senate

Twenty-Third State Legislature

Regular Session of 2006

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred S.B. No. 2879 entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT MAKING AN APPROPRIATION TO THE HAWAII CIVIL AIR PATROL,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this measure is to appropriate funds to assist the Hawaii civil air patrol in defraying its operational expenses.

Your Committee finds that the Hawaii civil air patrol is a volunteer organization that depends on receiving state funding to defray its operating expenses in carrying out crucial operations for the Hawaii Civil Defense system.

Your Committee has amended this measure by changing the appropriation to an unspecified amount, and by making technical nonsubstantive amendments for the purposes of clarity and style.

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. 2879, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 2879, S.D. 1.

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

____________________________
