HB 319-FIREARMS
1:37:20 PM
CHAIR FRENCH announced the consideration of CS for HB 319 [CSHB
319(FIN)]. Public testimony was taken at the previous hearing.
He asked Ms. Lucky to discuss how the command to execute federal
firearms forms in Section 5 will work in practice.
JULI LUCKY, Staff to Representative Mike Hawker, said this puts
a duty on the chief law enforcement officer of a jurisdiction to
execute a form, but the bill doesn't specify a remedy if that's
not done.
CHAIR FRENCH asked if the failure to execute the form might be
the basis of an ethics complaint against a chief law enforcement
officer or chief administrative officer.
MS. LUCKY said she could do additional research on that, but
since there isn't a remedy in statute it's unclear what the
remedy might be for a violation of this section.
CHAIR FRENCH announced he would hold HB 319 in committee to
allow time to look at the options. I don't want to create an
expectation that can't be enforced or put municipal police
departments across the state in a bind, he said.
