Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Judiciary, to which was referred S.B. No. 2745, S.D. 2, H.D. 1, entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this bill is to update the Uniform Controlled Substances Act by, among other things:

 

     (1)  Restoring the emergency scheduling of the Schedule I controlled substance Salvia divinorum and its constituent Salvinorin A as a hallucinogenic substance;

 

     (2)  Modifying the show cause process and including therein the denial of an application for registration; and

 

     (3)  Authorizing the imposition of administrative fines where a person subject to the requirements of the Controlled Substance Electronic Accountability Prescription System intentionally or knowingly fails to transmit required information, and adding thereto a request from the designated state agency for data correction.

 

     The Department of Public Safety and Honolulu Police Department testified in support of this bill.  The Drug Policy Forum of Hawaii testified in opposition to this measure.  Walgreens provided comments.

 

 

     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 S.B. No. 2745, S.D. 2, H.D. 1, and recommends that it pass Third Reading.

 

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