RELATING TO CORRECTIONAL FACILITIES.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
SECTION 1. The legislature finds that there is an urgent need for the replacement and relocation of the current Oahu community correctional center.

The sum appropriated shall be expended by the department of accounting and general services for the purposes of this Act.
