On page 1, after line 20 of the striking amendment, insert the following:

"NEW SECTION. Sec. 2. A new section is added to chapter 43.101

RCW to read as follows:

Subject to the availability of amounts appropriated for this specific purpose, the commission shall establish and administer a grant program for law enforcement agencies, as defined in RCW 10.116.010, to acquire alternatives to hog-tie restraints and related training. The commission shall give priority to smaller agencies and agencies with limited financial resources when selecting grant recipients. Amounts awarded through the grant program must include funding to acquire and properly train on the use of alternative equipment."

Renumber the remaining sections consecutively and correct any internal references accordingly.
