Lobbyists may temporarily suspend their registration by amending the registration to indicate the months in which no lobbying will be done, no expenditures will be made for lobbying, and no compensation will be received for lobbying. The amendment must be made before the beginning of the suspension period.
(1) During the period when the suspension is effective, the PDC will not require L-2 Reports to be filed.
(2) The registration shall be reinstated upon the expiration of the suspension period indicated on the amended registration, or if the lobbyist further amends the registration in advance to indicate a new date of reinstatement. The lobbyist must update any information on the registration upon reinstatement.
(3) Notification under this rule does not suspend or modify the requirement in RCW
42.17A.600(4) for a new registration each odd-numbered year.
