AI Summary
This bill amends existing law to expand the funding sources for the Hawaii Film and Creative Industries Development Special Fund, which supports the growth of the state's film and creative sectors. Specifically, it removes a previous restriction and clarifies that all revenues, fees, and income generated by the Department of Business, Economic Development, and Tourism (DBEDT) from managing public facilities that aid media and entertainment businesses, including the Hawaii Film Studio, will now be deposited into this special fund. This change aims to provide a more consistent and potentially larger revenue stream for the fund, which also receives appropriations from the legislature, private donations, and grants.
