Bill > HCR179

This Concurrent Resolution urges the ?Aha Moku Advisory Committee, an entity established to advise the state on Native Hawaiian traditional and customary resource management practices, to adhere to its adopted Rules of Practice and Procedure, fulfill its legal obligations including the Sunshine Law (which requires public meetings for deliberations and decisions), and establish clear policies for administrative and managerial accountability. It also calls for the creation of a working group, composed of representatives from the Senate, House of Representatives, the Committee itself, the Department of Land and Natural Resources, and the Office of Hawaiian Affairs, to review the Committee's operations and provide recommendations for improved governance and accountability to the Legislature by early 2027.
