| 47 | | - | SECTION 1. The legislature finds that the community council on the purchase of health and human services was established in 1997 by section 103F-202, Hawaii Revised Statutes, for the purpose of providing input and advising the state procurement administrator in developing the rules, infrastructure, and procedures for procuring health and human services. More than twenty-five years later, administrative rules are well established and both providers and purchasing agencies are accustomed to the State's procurement process. Any further rule changes can be managed through the procurement policy board. The purpose of this Act is to amend the procurement laws relating to purchases of health and human services by abolishing the community council on purchase of health and human services. SECTION 2.

(b) Voting members shall be appointed by the governor and serve for four years. Each voting member shall serve until the member's successor is appointed. Section 26-34 shall apply insofar as it relates to the number of terms and consecutive number of years a member may serve on the council.
