On page 25, beginning on line 3, strike all of section 12

Renumber the remaining sections consecutively and correct any internal references accordingly.

EFFECT: Removes the section that: provides that state and local government entities and employees acting in good faith are immune from liability for issuing, failing to issue, or revoking a permit to purchase firearms or for errors in preparing or transmitting information used to determine a person's eligibility for a permit; and allows a writ of mandamus to direct that erroneous information that led to a denial of a permit be corrected.

Reinstates current law that a person may apply for a writ of mandamus directing an issuing agency to issue a concealed pistol license wrongfully denied or directing the Washington State Patrol Firearms Background Check Program to approve an application to purchase a firearm wrongfully denied.
