RE:    S.B. No. 2548

       S.D. 2

       H.D. 1

       C.D. 1

 

 

 

Honorable Colleen Hanabusa

President of the Senate

Twenty-Fifth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2010

State of Hawaii

 

Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Fifth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2010

State of Hawaii

 

Madam and Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Conference on the disagreeing vote of the Senate to the amendments proposed by the House of Representatives in S.B. No. 2548, S.D. 2, H.D. 1, entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY,"

 

having met, and after full and free discussion, has agreed to recommend and does recommend to the respective Houses the final passage of this bill in an amended form.

 

     The purpose of this measure is to implement the information technology recommendations of Auditor's Report No. 09-06 by:

 

     (1)  Establishing within the Office of the Governor a Chief Information Officer and Information Technology Steering Committee to organize, manage, and oversee statewide information technology governance; and

 

     (2)  Establishing a shared services technology special fund to be funded by an unspecified percentage of central services fees for the operations of the Chief Information Officer and the Steering Committee.

 

     Your Committee on Conference finds that creating greater efficiencies in information technology governance is particularly critical when state resources are severely limited.  This measure will allow the State to review and improve its management of information technology to meet the challenge of providing public services with reduced resources.

 

     Your Committee on Conference has amended this measure by:

 

     (1)  Requiring the Governor to report to the 2011 Legislature with recommendations for:

 

          (A)  The most appropriate state agency to house the Chief Information Officer and any personnel;

 

          (B)  The appropriate funding level for the shared services technology special fund and the designated percentage of all moneys collected pursuant to section 36-27(a), Hawaii Revised Statutes, for deposit into the shared services technology special fund; and

 

          (C)  Any legislation necessary to implement these recommendations; and

 

     (2)  Changing the effective date from July 1, 2112, to January 1, 2011.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the managers of your Committee on Conference that is attached to this report, your Committee on Conference is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2548, S.D. 2, H.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Final Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 2548, S.D. 2, H.D. 1, C.D. 1.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the managers:
