STAND. COM. REP. NO. 2205
Honolulu, Hawaii
RE: S.B. No. 2076
Honorable Colleen Hanabusa
President of the Senate
Twenty-Fifth State Legislature
Regular Session of 2010
State of Hawaii
Madam:
Your Committee on Human Services, to which was referred S.B. No. 2076 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE COMMISSION ON FATHERHOOD,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to extend from two to four years the term of office of members of the Commission on Fatherhood.
Written testimony presented to the Committee may be reviewed on the Legislature's website.
The Commission on Fatherhood was established by the Legislature in 2003 in recognition of the important and unique role fathers play in the lives of their children, families, and communities, and to serve in an advisory capacity to state agencies to promote healthy family relationships between parents and children. Your Committee finds that extension of the terms of the Commission's members will enable the Commission to benefit from members' institutional knowledge and continuity.
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 S.B. No. 2076 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be placed on the calendar for Third Reading.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Human Services,
