Honolulu, Hawaii

                , 2012

 

RE:   H.B. No. 2179

 

 

 

 

Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Sixth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2012

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Legislative Management, to which was referred H.B. No. 2179 entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE AUDITOR,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this measure is to allow for the diminishment of the auditor's salary by general law applicable to all salaried officers, to conform with statutory provisions of the salaries of other legislative service agency heads.  This measure would not diminish the salary of the current auditor unless general law applicable to all salaried officers of the State is enacted concurrently with or after the effective date of this measure.

 

     The League of Women Voters testified in support of this measure.  The Auditor and a concerned individual opposed this measure.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Legislative Management that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2179 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to the Committee on Finance.

 

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Legislative Management,
