HRS §92-10
State legislature follows its own meeting rules
This section says the state legislature and its members do not follow the general open meeting law in this chapter. Instead, the Senate and House of Representatives set their own rules for meetings, including notice, agenda, minutes, enforcement, and penalties. Those legislative rules override this part.
