Full Legal Analysis
HB824 mandates the appropriation of funds for the legislative reference bureau to procure AI software and analytic services for fiscal years 2025-2026 and 2026-2027. The primary objective is to analyze the Hawaii Revised Statutes and Hawaii Administrative Rules to identify provisions that are obsolete, duplicative, or inconsistent. The bureau is required to submit a report of its findings and recommendations to the legislature no later than twenty days prior to the convening of the regular session of 2027. This bill reflects a growing trend among states to leverage AI for regulatory streamlining, similar to initiatives in Ohio and South Carolina. There are no specified penalties for non-compliance, as the bill focuses on funding and reporting rather than enforcement mechanisms.
