State of Washington | 62nd Legislature | 2011 Regular Session |
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
