STAND. COM. REP. NO. 604
Honolulu, Hawaii
RE: S.B. No. 883
S.D. 2
Honorable Shan S. Tsutsui
President of the Senate
Twenty-Sixth State Legislature
Regular Session of 2011
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred S.B. No. 883, S.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO SPECIAL NUMBER PLATES,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose and intent of this measure is to make available to qualifying Gold Star family members special motor vehicle license number plates.
Your Committee received comments in support of this measure from Gail Y. Haraguchi, Director, Division of Motor Vehicle, Licensing and Permits, City and County of Honolulu; and Gregory Jackson, Director, Office of Veterans' Services.
Your Committee finds that the issuance of special vehicle license number plates is an excellent way to recognize and honor persons whose family members have fallen while serving our country in the military.
Your Committee has amended this measure by:
(1) Changing the effective date to July 1, 2050, to facilitate further discussion on the issue; and
(2) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for the purposes of clarity, style, and consistency.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Ways and Means that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 883, S.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 883, S.D. 2.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Ways and Means,
|
