Honolulu, Hawaii
RE: S.B. No. 2323
Honorable Shan S. Tsutsui
President of the Senate
Twenty-Sixth State Legislature
Regular Session of 2012
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Judiciary and Labor, to which was referred S.B. No. 2323 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT MAKING APPROPRIATIONS FOR PUBLIC EMPLOYMENT COST ITEMS,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose and intent of this measure is to provide a vehicle to implement pending collective bargaining agreements from a potential arbitration for bargaining unit 9.
Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure from the Hawaii Government Employees Association, AFSCME Local 152, AFL-CIO.
Your Committee finds that the registered professional nurses under bargaining unit 9 are currently under talks to ratify their collective bargaining agreements. If an impasse occurs and an arbitration panel decides in favor of the nurses, funds will need to be made available for their new contracts. This measure serves as a vehicle for funds to be appropriated.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Judiciary and Labor that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2323 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to the Committee on Ways and Means.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Judiciary and Labor,
|
