BACKGROUND:

 

The motor vehicles excise tax apportionment and distribution was reenacted twice during the 1987 Legislature, each without reference to each other.  There is no substantive conflict between the two versions but they are unable to be merged for publication purposes because the sections were reenacted differently.

 

SUMMARY:

 

The motor vehicles excise tax apportionment and distribution, RCW 82.44.150, is reenacted as one section with all changes incorporated within it.

 

Appropriation:    none

 

Revenue:    none

 

Fiscal Note:      none requested
