Hawaii Game Management Advisory Commission Meeting Minutes – September 15, 2014 C. Masuda: You could. But then it would be kind of hard for people to adequately testify into – beforehand since they don’t know what the issue is… B. Command: Right, it would be impossible, right? C. Masuda: Yeah, kind of hard. B. Command: OK. T. Sylvester: So, it’s report only, then? Because if he has a pressing issue in Kau and he does his report but we can’t take any action on it… B.
