Repeals open meeting requirements for the state legislature, delegating them to the Senate and House rules.
Hawaii HB494 repeals Section 92-10 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes, which previously outlined open meeting requirements for the state legislature. The bill delegates these requirements to the respective rules and procedures of the Senate and House of Representatives. This change means that the rules governing open meetings for the state legislature will now be determined by the Senate and House, rather than being explicitly stated in the statutes. The bill takes effect upon approval.
