to issue warrants for the recovery of unlawfully possessed state property. (This conference
committee report does the following: (1) Restores the communications system infrastructure
program and its funding and adds the appropriation from the state license branch fund to the
integrated public safety communications fund. (2) Adds the funding for the backlog of state
police laboratory cases. (3) Removes the construction industry disaster volunteer program and
all immunity provisions from the bill. (4) Removes provisions relating to crimes involving
