Honorable Joseph M. Souki

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Seventh State Legislature

Regular Session of 2013

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Human Services, to which was referred H.B. No. 788 entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO CHILD SUPPORT ENFORCEMENT,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this measure is to clarify child support enforcement reporting requirements for employers by adding the definition of a "new hire" to the statute governing new hire reporting requirements for child support enforcement to comply with amendments to the Social Security Act made by the Trade Adjustment Assistance Extension Act of 2011.

 

     The Department of the Attorney General testified in support of this measure.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Human Services that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 788 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to the Committee on Judiciary.

 

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Human Services,
