Hawaii HB403 amends the Sunshine Law to allow board members to attend informational meetings without constituting a quorum.

Hawaii HB403 modifies the Sunshine Law by allowing members of a board to attend informational meetings or presentations on board business, even if they do not constitute a quorum. These meetings can include legislative hearings, conventions, seminars, or community meetings. The bill ensures that discussions during these meetings do not involve commitments to vote on matters. Board members must report their attendance and the discussed matters at the next board meeting. The changes do not affect rights, duties, penalties, or proceedings that occurred before the bill's effective date.
