RE: H.B. No. 269
Honorable Joseph M. Souki
Speaker, House of Representatives
Twenty-Eighth State Legislature
Regular Session of 2015
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Consumer Protection & Commerce, to which was referred H.B. No. 269 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO PSYCHOLOGY,"
begs leave to report as follows:
Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure from the Hawaii Board of Psychology.
Your Committee finds that recognizing American Psychological Association accredited doctoral degree programs that provide training in scientific psychology and the foundations of practice will expand the scope of doctoral level education and internship training in professional psychology and allow for greater opportunities for licensure for psychologists in Hawaii.
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. 269 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 Consumer Protection & Commerce,
