POINT OF PERSONAL PRIVILEGE

Representative Jacobsen: Thank you Mr. Speaker. Reverend Armstrong has left but I did want to make a comment to the body that I did appreciate the fact that he did an ecumenical invocation. And perhaps I'm a little bit more sensitive to this issue than some of the other people, it happens that my wife is Jewish, and I have two daughters. And they're constantly pointing out to me minor slights, and I think it's more a manner of not being aware of it. But there's a lot of people that live in this state and they're from all different religions.

And I really think what we should do in here is with innovations is focus on non sectarian invocations and show that we are considerate of all peoples and all their faiths. And I suppose I should close with what Lincoln said one time, He didn't care what religion you were but he said, " Be the best", and that 's the kind of thing we need to look at in this body. And I really did appreciate the invocation this morning. Thank you alot, Reverend Armstrong.

The Speaker assumed the chair.

POINT OF ORDER

Representative Carlson: Thank you Mr. Speaker. I would request a ruling on the scope and object of the amendment.

SPEAKER'S RULING

"Representative Carlson, the Speaker is prepared to Rule on your Point of Order which challenges Amendment 660 to Senate Bill No. 5120 as being beyond the Scope and Object of the bill.

"The title of Senate Bill No. 5120 is "AN ACT Relating to death benefits under the law enforcement officers' and fire fighters' retirement system.

"The title is very broad. The bill amends two sections in chapter 41.26 RCW.

"The bill adds an additional election under certain circumstances for persons having an insurable interest in the member's life to be paid a set percentage of the member's accumulated contributions less certain amounts. The bill also provides that accumulated contributions attributable to certain restorations be refunded at a set percentage.

"Amendment 660 to Senate Bill No. 5120 would add a new section to chapter 41.04 RCW that would grant a cash death benefit award to be funded in an omnibus appropriations bill and expressly prohibits such award from being paid out of any retirement funds under the administration of the department of retirement systems.

"The object of the bill is to provide for certain distributions from funds already paid into a member's retirement system. Amendment 660 awards certain cash grants that would require an appropriation.

"Although this amendment is within the scope of the title of Senate Bill No. 5120, the amendment goes beyond the object of the bill.

"The Speaker finds that Amendment 660 is beyond the scope and object of the bill.

"Representative Carlson, Your Point of Order is well taken."

There being no objection, the rules were suspended, the second reading considered the third and the bill was placed on final passage.

Representatives Lisk and Romero spoke in favor of passage of the bill.

POINT OF INQUIRY

Representative Lisk yielded to a question by Representative Romero.

Representative Romero: Under current law, the Department of Labor and Industries is required to credit employer' industrial insurance experience rating accounts when the department is reimbursed from third-party actions for benefits paid to an injured worker. This bill repeals that requirement. What is intended by this amendment?

Representative Lisk: The department has agreed with the business community to adopt a different approach to crediting third-party reimbursements. The current approach is "after-the-fact" and employers often do not receive timely credits in their experience rating accounts. With the statutory restriction removed, the department will develop a prospective crediting method that will give employers "up-front" credit when a reimbursement is anticipated. Under no circumstances, will the department eliminate the crediting process for employers' experience rating accounts.
