A BILL FOR AN ACT
RELATING TO THE HAWAIIAN HOMES COMMISSION ACT.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
SECTION 1. The legislature finds that certain native Hawaiians who are eligible for a lease pursuant to the Hawaiian Homes Commission Act, 1920, as amended, have acquired a lease, sold or transferred their interest in the lease, and then placed their name on the waitlist for a second lease of Hawaiian home lands.

SECTION 2. The department of Hawaiian home lands shall study
the issue of Hawaiian home lands lessees selling or transferring their Hawaiian
home lands lease to another native Hawaiian for a fee or other personal gain
and then applying for a subsequent Hawaiian home lands lease. The department shall submit a report of the
findings and recommendations from its study, including any proposed
legislation, to the legislature no later than twenty days prior to the
convening of the regular session of 2020.
SECTION 3. This Act shall take effect on July 1, 2050.
