The legislature finds that Act 279, Session Laws of Hawaii 2022, appropriated out of the general revenues of the State of Hawaii the sum of $600,000,000 or so much thereof as may be necessary for fiscal year 2021-2022 to provide a multi-pronged approach to reducing the over twenty-eight thousand applicants on the department of Hawaiian home lands waitlist. The legislature further finds that Act 279, Session Laws of Hawaii 2022, stipulated that any moneys not encumbered for specific purposes shall lapse to the general fund on June 30, 2025. Article VII, section 11 of the Hawaii state constitution provides that no appropriation shall be for a period exceeding three years. This provision therefore permits the expenditure of biennial appropriations one year beyond the biennial period, so no later than June 30, 2024, for the fiscal biennium 2021‑2023. Accordingly, the purpose of this Act is to allow for the expenditure of these funds until June 30, 2025, as provided for by the legislature in Act 279, Session Laws of Hawaii 2022. SECTION 2. Act 279, Session Laws of Hawaii 2022, is amended by amending section 6 to read as follows: "SECTION 6. There is appropriated out of the general revenues of the State of Hawaii the sum of $600,000,000 or so much there of as may be necessary for fiscal year 2021-2022 for the purposes of this Act; provided that any moneys not expended or encumbered for specific purposes shall lapse to the general fund on June 30, [2025.] 2023. The sum appropriated shall be expended by the department of Hawaiian home lands for the purposes of this Act." SECTION 3. There is appropriated out of the general revenues of the State of Hawaii the sum of $ or so much thereof as may be necessary for fiscal year 2023-2024 for the purposes of Act 279, Session Laws of Hawaii 2022; provided that any moneys not encumbered for specific purposes shall lapse to the general fund on June 30, 2025. The sums appropriated shall be expended by the department of Hawaiian home lands for the purposes of Act 279, Session Laws of Hawaii 2022. SECTION 4. If any provision of this Act, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, is held invalid, the invalidity does not affect other provisions or applications of the Act that can be given effect without the invalid provision or application, and to this end the provisions of this Act are severable. SECTION 5. Statutory material to be repealed is bracketed and stricken. New statutory material is underscored. SECTION 6. This Act shall take effect on July 1, 2023; provided that section 2 shall take effect on June 29, 2023. INTRODUCED BY: _____________________________
