Informing the Legislature that on June 30, 2025, the Governor signed the following bill into law: SB601 SD1 HD1 CD1 (ACT 245).

This bill (SB601, enacted as Act 245) requires law enforcement officers in Hawaii to post specific notice after conducting warrantless searches of residences, businesses, or other buildings. The notice must include the report number, date, time, reason for entry, and contact information for at least one involved officer. It also mandates that all entrances used during such searches be secured upon completion. These requirements apply to all county police departments, the Hawaii Department of Law Enforcement, and any state or county public body employing law enforcement officers. The law amends Hawaii Revised Statutes Chapter 803 to include these procedures under "Searches, Search Warrants" provisions.
