Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred S.B. No. 1287, S.D. 1, entitled:

 

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

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose and intent of this measure is to better frame the duties and responsibilities of the State's Chief Information Officer and provide the necessary staffing and funding resources to accomplish those objectives

 

Specifically, the measure:

 

     (1)  Authorizing the Chief Information Officer to employ staff exempt from chapters 76, 78, and 89, Hawaii Revised Statutes;

 

     (2)  Moving the shared services technology special fund from the Department of Budget and Finance to the Department of Accounting and General Services, and requiring three per cent of the receipts collected from the special funds pursuant to section 36-27, Hawaii Revised Statutes, to be deposited into the shared services technology special fund;

 

     (3)  Authorizing the Chief Information Officer and the Comptroller to raise funds to defray administrative costs and accept donations of money and personal property on behalf of the information technology steering committee, subject to certain provisions; and

 

     (4)  Requiring the Chief Information Officer to submit an annual report to the Governor and the Legislature on the activities, programs, and related expenses under the authority of the Chief Information Officer and the information technology steering committee.

    

     The measure also appropriates unspecified amounts to, and out of, the shared services technology special fund to implement the purposes of this measure.

 

     Your Committee received comments in support of this measure from Bruce A. Coppa, Comptroller, Department of Accounting and General Services.

 

     Your Committee finds that this measure will assist the office of the Chief Information Officer and all stakeholders by clarifying the responsibilities of the position.

 

     Your Committee has amended this measure by:

 

     (1)  Changing the percentage of receipts collected for special funds to be deposited to the shared services technology special fund to an unspecified percentage; and

 

     (2)  Changing the effective date to July 1, 2050, to facilitate further discussion on the measure.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Ways and Means that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 1287, S.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 1287, S.D. 2.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Ways and Means,
