Re: Resolution No. 159 -11 : A RESOLUTION TO THE HAWAII STATE
LEGISLATURE URGING IT TO REVISE AND CLARIFY AGRICULTURAL
PRODUCT BRANDING AND COUNTRY OR REGION OF ORIGIN LABELING, AS
PROVIDED IN CHAPTER 486 OF THE HAWAII REVISED STATUTES.
Pursuant to Section 2(g) of Rule 4 of the Rules of Procedure of the Council of the County
of Hawai`i, this written request is submitted with my approval that the above - referenced
matter be waived from the Committee on Governmental Relations to the full Council for
immediate action. In reviewing this matter, timely approval is crucial. It is therefore
advantageous that approval is granted and the matter placed onto the next Council agenda
for review. However, in the event this request is denied, for whatever reason, I
understand the matter shall be referred to the Committee on Governmental Relations for
placement on its future agenda.
