HRS §42F-107

Governor must update grant recipients on delayed grants

If the governor does not release a grant within 90 days after the law awarding it takes effect, the governor must tell the recipient whether the grant is still pending or will not be released. This notice must be given every three months until a final decision is made.

The statute, as written — Grants; release by the governor

If a grant awarded by the legislature pursuant to this chapter is not allocated or released by the governor within ninety days of the effective date of the legislation awarding the grant, the governor shall notify, in the manner prescribed in section 1-28.5, the recipient of the unreleased grant on the status of whether the grant is still pending or will not be released. The governor shall provide the notice once every quarterly allotment period (as the periods are defined in section 37-32), beginning on the ninety-first day after the effective date of the legislation awarding the grant and until a final determination is made on the status of the grant.
