STAND. COM. REP. NO.  749

 

Honolulu, Hawaii

                , 2013

 

RE:   H.B. No. 1287

      H.D. 1

 

 

 

 

Honorable Joseph M. Souki

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Seventh State Legislature

Regular Session of 2013

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Judiciary, to which was referred H.B. No. 1287 entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO PERSONAL INFORMATION,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

                The purpose of this measure is to help ensure that age-restricted goods and services are not purchased by underage individuals by repealing the requirement that reasonable doubt as to an individual's age exist to permit a business to scan the machine-readable zone of a Hawaii identification card or driver's license to verify an individual's age.

 

     The Liquor Commission of the City and County of Honolulu; Department of Liquor Control of the County of Hawaii; Seven-Eleven Hawaii, Inc.; Hawaii Food Industry Association; Mothers Against Drunk Driving Hawaii; and Coalition for a Drug-Free Hawaii supported this measure.  The Office of Consumer Protection of the Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs, American Civil Liberties Union of Hawaii, and two concerned individuals opposed this measure.

     Your Committee has amended this measure by:

 

     (1)  Changing its effective date to January 1, 2100, to encourage further discussion; and

 

     (2)  Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for the purposes of clarity and consistency.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Judiciary that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 1287, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 1287, H.D. 1, and be placed on the calendar for Third Reading.

 

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