Honorable Scott K. Saiki

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Ninth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2018

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred H.B. No. 1929, H.D. 1, entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE HAWAII LABOR RELATIONS BOARD,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this measure is to require the Hawaii Labor Relations Board (Board) to adopt emergency rules if the Board finds that Hawaii's Collective Bargaining in Public Employment Law, Chapter 89, Hawaii Revised Statutes, or its application is inconsistent with any federal or State law and the adoption of an emergency rule is urgently needed for conformity with controlling law, to preserve rights and stability, or for other purposes.

 

     The University of Hawaii Professional Assembly, United Public Workers, AFSCME, Local 646, AFL-CIO, and Oahu County Committee on Legislative Priorities of the Democratic Party of Hawaii supported this measure.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Finance that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 1929, H.D. 1, and recommends that it pass Third Reading.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Finance,
