Act 215 Task Force

Created under Act 215, this task force was directed to study a specific statutory or regulatory problem and return recommendations to the Legislature within a defined timeframe. Task forces of this type in Hawaii typically include agency directors, legislative appointees, and public members with relevant expertise. Their reports carry significant weight in shaping follow-on legislation.

The task force's recommendations may lead directly to new laws affecting Hawaii residents in the subject area it covers. Following its public meetings and final report is the most direct way to engage before policy is finalized.
