AI Summary
This bill updates state position titles to reflect modern terminology, changing "private secretary" to "executive assistant" and "secretary" to "administrative assistant" where applicable across various state statutes. This change is intended to modernize job titles within the state government, making them more appealing to potential applicants and aligning them with current industry standards, as the term "secretary" is considered outdated. The bill specifically amends sections of the Hawaii Revised Statutes related to civil service, procurement, and the paroling authority, among others, to reflect these title changes.
