Regular Session of 2000
State of Hawaii

Sir:

     Your Committee on Judiciary and Hawaiian Affairs, to which
was referred H.B. No. 750 entitled: 

     "A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO ISLAND SYMBOLS,"

begs leave to report as follows:

     The purpose of this bill is to establish an official color
and flower or lei material for each island of the State.

     Testimony in support of this measure was received from the
State Office of Hawaiian Affairs, Kaho'olawe Island Reserve
Commission, and a concerned individual.

     Your Committee finds that the citizens of this State have
long recognized and accepted the various floral and color
designations found in this measure. 

     Your Committee has amended this measure by making technical,
nonsubstantive changes for purposes of clarity and style.

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your
Committee on Judiciary and Hawaiian Affairs that is attached to
this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and
purpose of H.B. No. 750, as amended herein, and recommends that
it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No.
750, H.D. 1.
