The legislature finds that the International Accreditation Service provides objective evidence that an organization operates at the highest level of ethical, legal, and technical standards. The International Accreditation Service accredits a wide range of companies and organizations, including governmental entities, commercial businesses, and professional associations. The International Accreditation Service accreditation programs are based on recognized national and international standards, such as building and structural standards, that ensure domestic and global acceptance of its accreditations. As a result, International Accreditation Service accredited companies and organizations can improve their processes using input gained from onsite assessment and by learning about best practices from International Accreditation Service assessors and peer evaluators. Furthermore, an International Accreditation Service accreditation can result in reduced cost, time savings, and improvement of products and services. Thus, if applied to county building codes, an accreditation by the International Accreditation Service can enable county building agencies to ensure buildings meet the best and most current accepted standards. The purpose of this Act is to require each county agency responsible for enforcing its respective building codes to be accredited by the International Accreditation Service. SECTION 2. Each county, other than the county of Kalawao, shall require that the county agency responsible for enforcing its respective building code shall be accredited by the International Accreditation Service. SECTION 3. This Act shall take effect upon its approval. INTRODUCED BY: _____________________________
