Haw. Code R. § 16-201-85 - Purpose, scope, and construction
(a) The purpose of
this Subchapter is to clarify that any board or commission may issue informal
interpretations in addition to and supplemental to any power to grant
declaratory relief provided for elsewhere in this chapter. The purpose of this
Subchapter is to facilitate prompt decision making in matters where no formal
ruling is desired or needed by any person and where the interpretation can be
stated without the necessity of an evidentiary hearing and without
consideration of legal arguments.
(b) This Subchapter shall be construed in a
way that will allow informal, just, speedy, and inexpensive resolution of
inquiries.
(c) Nothing in this
Subchapter shall be construed to require notice to the public pursuant to
chapter 91, HRS, nor to require formal contested case procedures.
