[1995 c 403 § 1006.]

Notes:
     Findings -- 1995 c 403: "The master license system of the department of licensing is a proven, progressive program for one-stop state licensing. This flexible system should be expanded into a statewide shared database to facilitate combined licensing processes at local, state, and federal levels as a benefit to the business community through improved customer service.

In order to achieve this goal the department of licensing should expand the license information management system, offered by the master license system, to include local and federal licensing requirements, making this information readily accessible at appropriate locations throughout the state. In addition, the department should develop a pilot program expanding the capabilities of the master licensing [license] system to local and federal levels in an efficient manner; and provide access to the expanded master licensing [license] system for all jurisdictions within the state of Washington." [1995 c 403 § 1001.]

     Part headings not law -- Severability -- 1995 c 403: See RCW 43.05.903 and 43.05.904.
