BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON:
NEW SECTION.  Sec. 1.  (1) This section is the tax preference performance statement for the tax preference contained in section 2 of this act. It is not intended to create a private right of action by any party or be used to determine eligibility for preferential tax treatment.

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 2.  2010 c 225 s 4 (uncodified) is repealed.

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 4.  This act is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, or safety, or support of the state government and its existing public institutions, and takes effect June 30, 2015.
