Honolulu, Hawaii
RE: H.B. No. 1152
H.D. 1
S.D. 2
Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi
President of the Senate
Thirty-Third State Legislature
Regular Session of 2025
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Ways and Means, to which was referred H.B. No. 1152, H.D. 1, S.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO TAX ADMINISTRATION,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose and intent of this measure is to exempt from civil service the software developer supervisor in the Department of Taxation and the data privacy officer and tax business analysts in the Office of the Director of Taxation.
Your Committee received written comments in support of this measure from the Department of Taxation.
Your Committee received written comments on this measure from the Tax Foundation of Hawaii.
Your Committee finds that Act 79, Session Laws of Hawaii 2024, established a civil service exemption for senior software developers in the Department of Taxation as part of the Department's long-term goal to retain experienced developers and reduce reliance on vendor professional services. Your Committee also finds that this measure builds upon Act 79 by establishing an exempt software developer supervisor position to oversee the complex development work required to maintain and update the Tax System Modernization program and supervise the senior software developers.
Your Committee has amended this measure by changing the effective date to upon approval.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Ways and Means that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 1152, H.D. 1, S.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Third Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 1152, H.D. 1, S.D. 2.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Ways and Means,

H.D. 1
S.D. 1
Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi
President of the Senate
Thirty-Third State Legislature
Regular Session of 2025
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Labor and Technology, to which was referred H.B. No. 1152, H.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO TAX ADMINISTRATION,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose and intent of this measure is to permanently exempt the software developer supervisor in the Department of Taxation and the data privacy officer and tax business analysts in the Office of the Director of Taxation from civil service.
Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure from the Department of Taxation.
Your Committee received comments on this measure from the Tax Foundation of Hawaii.
Your Committee finds that the software developer supervisor, data privacy officer, and tax business analyst positions are all highly specialized positions that require experience and knowledge beyond the civil service regime. These positions are needed as part of the Department of Taxation's ongoing efforts to modernize the State's tax filing system through the Tax Modernization Program and join the Internal Revenue Service Direct File program in 2026. Your Committee further finds that experienced software developer supervisors are difficult to recruit and retain due to highly competitive salaries in the private sector. This measure will support the Department of Taxation's goal to modernize the State's tax filing system and attract more specialized, experienced professionals to employment with the State.
Your Committee has amended this measure by:
(1) Inserting an effective date of July 1, 2050, to encourage further discussion; and
(2) Making a technical, nonsubstantive amendment for the purposes of clarity and consistency.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Labor and Technology that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 1152, H.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 1152, H.D. 1, S.D. 1, and be referred to your Committee on Ways and Means.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Labor and Technology,

Regular Session of 2025
State of Hawaii
Madame:
Your Committee on Labor, to which was referred H.B. No. 1152 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO TAX ADMINISTRATION,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to permanently exempt the following positions from civil service:
(1) The software developer supervisor in the Department of Taxation; and
(2) The data privacy officer and tax business analysts in the Office of the Director of Taxation.
Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure from the Department of Taxation. Your Committee received comments on this measure from the Tax Foundation of Hawaii.
Your Committee finds that the Department of Taxation is working to modernize the State's tax filing system. Your Committee also finds that the Department of Taxation is seeking to join the Internal Revenue Service Direct File Program in 2026 and reduce reliance on third-party vendor services to implement complex system changes. Your Committee further finds that the software developer supervisor position is hard to retain in the State's employment because the private sector provides highly competitive offers for that type of position. Your Committee believes that this measure will support the efforts of the Department of Taxation to modernize the State's tax filing system by exempting these positions from civil service, which will help to attract specialized and experienced candidates.
Your Committee has amended this measure by:
(1) Changing the effective date to July 1, 3000, to encourage further discussion; and
(2) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for the purposes of clarity, consistency, and style.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Labor that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 1152, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 1152, H.D. 1, and be referred to your Committee on Finance.
