Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Fourth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2008

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred S.B. No. 2083, S.D. 2, entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE SUPERVISION OF ADULT OFFENDERS,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this bill is to improve the operation and effectiveness of the State Council for Interstate Adult Offender Supervision (Council) by:

 

(1)  Increasing the membership of the Council;

 

(2)  Authorizing the Judiciary to assess a fee on applications made by a parolee or probationer for a transfer out of Hawaii; and

 

(3)  Establishing one full-time coordinator position under the Judiciary, to help carry out the duties of the Interstate Compact for the Supervision of Adult Offenders.

 

     The Judiciary and Hawaii Paroling Authority supported this bill. 


 

     Your Committee has amended this bill by:

 

     (1)  Deleting the provision that statutorily establishes the full-time coordinator position for the supervision of adult offenders authorized to be appointed by the Judiciary;

 

     (2)  Changing its effective date to July 1, 2020, to encourage further discussion; and

 

     (3)  Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for clarity, consistency, and style.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Finance that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2083, S.D. 2, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 2083, S.D. 2, H.D. 1.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Finance,
