HONOLULU — There are going to be vacancies on the Hawaii State Ethics Commission and the Campaign Spending Commission.

The Judicial Council is seeking applicants to fill them.

There were will be two vacancies on the Campaign Spending Commission. The five members of the commission supervise campaign contributions and expenditures.

Members on both commissions serve on a voluntary basis. Neighbor island commissioners receive reimbursement for travel expenses to attend Oahu meetings.
