Bill > SR109

This Resolution formally requests the Auditor, a government official responsible for examining public accounts and operations, to conduct a "sunrise review" of the proposed regulation and licensure of school psychologists in Hawaii. A sunrise review is a process mandated by Hawaii Revised Statutes section 26H-6, which requires an analysis of any proposed legislation that would subject an unregulated profession or vocation to state licensing. Currently, individuals identifying as school psychologists in Hawaii are not required to have any formal state credentialing. The resolution directs the Auditor to analyze this proposal, submit findings and recommendations, including any potential new laws, to the Legislature by a specific deadline, and to send a certified copy of this request to the Auditor.
