RE:    GOV. MSG. NO. 544

 

 

 

Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi

President of the Senate

Thirtieth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2020

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Commerce, Consumer Protection, and Health, to which was referred Governor's Message No. 544, submitting for study and consideration the nomination of: 

 

State Board of Barbering and Cosmetology

 

G.M. No. 544

MARGARET WILLIAMS,

for a term to expire 06-30-2024,

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     Your Committee reviewed the personal history, resume, and statement submitted by Margaret Williams for service on the State Board of Barbering and Cosmetology.

 

     Your Committee received testimony in support of the nomination for the reappointment of Margaret Williams from the Board of Barbering and Cosmetology.

 

     Upon review of the testimony, your Committee finds that Ms. Williams' experience, knowledge, and proven leadership on the State Board of Barbering and Cosmetology qualify her to be nominated for reappointment to the State Board of Barbering and Cosmetology as a barber member.  Your Committee notes that Ms. Williams has nearly fifty years of experience in the industry and has been a licensed barber in Hawaii since 1974.  Ms. Williams has been employed with the Honolulu Barber School since 1971 and is also currently the President of the Hawaii Institute of Hair Design.  Your Committee further notes that Ms. Williams has served on the State Board of Barbering and Cosmetology since 2016 and her extensive experience as a licensed barber and instructor evidence her desire to contribute to her profession.  Ms. Williams' reappointment will ensure continuity of the State Board of Barbering and Cosmetology's efforts to update its licensing rules and to effectively oversee the practice of barbering and cosmetology in the State.  Your Committee therefore recommends that Ms. Williams be reappointed to the State Board of Barbering and Cosmetology based on her experience, background, and dedication to public service.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Commerce, Consumer Protection, and Health that is attached to this report, your Committee, after full consideration of the background, experience, and qualifications of the nominee, has found the nominee to be qualified for the position to which nominated and recommends that the Senate advise and consent to the nomination.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Commerce, Consumer Protection, and Health,
