Honolulu, Hawaii
, 2014
RE: H.B. No. 2400
Honorable Joseph M. Souki
Speaker, House of Representatives
Twenty-Seventh State Legislature
Regular Session of 2014
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Consumer Protection & Commerce, to which was referred H.B. No. 2400 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO TEMPORARY DISABILITY BENEFITS,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The Department of Labor and Industrial Relations testified in support of this measure.
Your Committee finds that organ donation is a vital resource for successful organ transplantations. Your Committee further finds that providing temporary disability benefits to organ donors who suffer a disability as a result of organ donation will encourage future organ donations.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Consumer Protection & Commerce that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2400 and recommends that it be referred to the Committee on Finance.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Consumer Protection & Commerce,
