By Committee on State Government

     On page 1, after line 6, strike all material through "RCW 4.92.210." on page 2, line 2 and insert:

     "The tort claims revolving fund is created in the custody of the treasurer to be used solely and exclusively for the payment of claims arising out of tortious conduct taking place prior to July 1, 1990 and against both the state and its officers, employees, and volunteers for whom the defense of the claims was authorized under RCW 4.92.070. 

     Monies paid from the revolving fund for any claim are limited to the amount by which the claim exceeds the amount available to the claimant from any valid and collectible liability insurance.  Payment from the revolving fund shall not be made until the claim has been approved for payment in accordance with RCW 4.92.210."

 


 

 

Effect:  This amendment would make technical changes that clarify ambiguous language.
