Bill > HCR126

This concurrent resolution requests the Legislative Reference Bureau (LRB), a state agency responsible for providing legal research and analysis to the Hawaii Legislature, to conduct a comprehensive review of all reports currently mandated to be submitted to the Legislature. The resolution acknowledges that while legislative reports can provide crucial information about executive agencies and the Judiciary, some existing reporting requirements may have become outdated or unnecessary due to changes in programs or lack of meaningful new information. Specifically, the LRB is asked to evaluate these reports and recommend which ones should be discontinued. Furthermore, the resolution requires the LRB to submit a detailed report of its findings and recommendations, including potential legislative changes, no later than twenty days before the 2026 Regular Session. As a final step, a certified copy of this resolution will be transmitted to the Director of the Legislative Reference Bureau, formalizing the request and ensuring follow-through on the review process.
