RELATING TO PUBLIC LAND TRUST REVENUES.
HB 293 requires that a specific portion of funds generated from Hawaii's Public Land Trust (PLT) be transferred directly to the Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA). It mandates the transfer of "all moneys in the pro rata portion" of PLT revenues, meaning a proportional share of these funds. This bill directly affects OHA, as it would make the organization the sole recipient of this designated revenue stream. The key mechanism is a mandatory transfer of these funds from the PLT to OHA, without requiring additional legislative action for each payment.
