<br /> Committee Chair Ikeda requested that Mrs. Yoshimoto address your Committee, and provide <br /> <br /> her insight regarding Bi11224. Council Member Yoshimoto reminded the Chair that <br /> Mrs. Yoshimoto decided previously not to testify to avoid any conflict of interest. Committee <br /> Chair Ikeda stated that the Committee had already determined that there was no conflict and <br /> <br /> that it was his "call" to request Mrs. Yoshimoto to speak, if she so desired. Mrs. Yoshimoto <br /> stated that Bi11224 was very "forward thinking legislation." She also stated that passage of <br /> Bill 224 would put Hawaii in the forefront in effort to make Hawaii "tobacco free". <br /> Your Committee on Public Safety and Parks and Recreation is in accord with the purpose and <br /> intent of Bill No. 224, and recommends it pass first reading. <br /> awm <br /> AYES NOES A&E EX Respectfully submitted, <br /> FORD X <br /> HIGH x COMMITTEE ON PUBLIC SAFETY <br /> HOFFMANN X AND PARKS AND RECREATION <br /> IKEDA X <br /> JACOBSON X <br /> NAEOLE X <br /> PILAGO X DONALD IKEDA, CHAIR <br /> YAGONG X PSPRC REPORT NO. 14 <br /> YOSHIMOTO X ADOPTED: FEB Z ~ 7O(19 <br /> <br />
