On page 6, after line 8, insert the following:

"NEW SECTION. Sec. A new section is added to chapter 10.95 RCW to read as follows:

(1) This act takes effect on July 1, 2020, contingent upon the department of labor of industries certifying that the state has fully funded the crime victim compensation program. The state has fully funded the crime victim compensation program if the department of labor and industries does not project a deficit based on the funding provided in the omnibus appropriations act and where payments for providers' services under the fee schedule established by the department of labor and industries are no less than payments provided for comparable services under the workers' compensation program under Title 51 RCW, as specified under RCW 7.68.030(2)(g).

(2) The department of labor and industries shall determine whether the contingency in subsection (1) of this section has occurred. If the contingency has occurred, the department of labor and industries shall immediately provide written certification to the chief clerk of the house of representatives, the secretary of the senate, and the office of the code reviser. This act is null and void if written certification is not received by July 1, 2020."

Correct the title.
