S.C.R. NO. 113 - Senate Concurrent Resolution

• Requests the Board of Education to televise or make available online its meetings to increase public access and transparency.

• Cites 'Olelo Community Media's success in televising selected Legislature and Honolulu City Council proceedings as a model for keeping the public informed.

• Notes that meeting minutes alone provide limited context compared to televised proceedings, and that public inability to attend in-person meetings creates an information gap.

• References the Governor's Open Government Plan as supporting increased community involvement through video teleconferencing of agency meetings.

• Directs that certified copies be transmitted to the Chairperson of the Board of Education and Superintendent of Education.
