Read first time 01/28/11.   Referred to Committee on Ways & Means.



     AN ACT Relating to state printing; amending RCW 1.08.039, 28A.300.040, 28B.10.029, 40.04.090, 40.06.030, 41.06.142, and 43.08.061; reenacting and amending RCW 41.06.070; creating new sections; repealing RCW 43.78.010, 43.78.020, 43.78.030, 43.78.040, 43.78.050, 43.78.070, 43.78.080, 43.78.090, 43.78.100, 43.78.105, 43.78.110, 43.78.170, 15.24.085, 15.62.190, 16.67.170, 40.04.030, and 40.07.050; providing an effective date; and declaring an emergency.

BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON:

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 1   The legislature finds that technological changes have decreased the need for a central state printer. Information to citizens is increasingly being provided in electronic formats, which is both cost-effective and saves natural resources. Additionally, as printing technologies have changed, they have become within the reach of most agencies to conduct their own printing. The legislature also finds that printing is not a core state service and would be better handled within the private sector. Therefore, the legislature is eliminating the state printer.

Sec. 2   RCW 1.08.039 and 1955 c 235 s 8 are each amended to read as follows:
     The committee may enter into contracts or otherwise arrange for the publication and/or distribution, provided for in RCW 1.08.038, with or without calling for bids((, by the public printer or by private printer,)) upon specifications formulated under the authority of RCW 1.08.037, and upon such basis as the committee deems to be most expeditious and economical. Any such contract may be upon such terms as the committee deems to be most advantageous to the state and to potential purchasers of such publications. The committee shall fix terms and prices for such publications.

Sec. 3   RCW 28A.300.040 and 2009 c 556 s 10 are each amended to read as follows:
