RE:   H.B. No. 1054

      H.D. 1

 

 

 

 

Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Sixth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2011

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred H.B. No. 1054 entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO EDUCATION,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this bill is to provide increased stability and predictability for principals and school community councils with respect to the weighted student formula by requiring the Committee on Weights to meet, and thereby re-open the weighted student formula, only once every odd-numbered year, rather than annually.

 

     The Department of Education supported this bill.

 

     Your Committee has amended this bill by making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for clarity, consistency, and style.

 

     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. 1054, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 1054, H.D. 1.

 

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

MARCUS R. OSHIRO, Chair
