Introduced
by
To revise the rules for maintaining or expunging records of investigations contained in a central state registry of serious child abuse cases. The state would have to send a notice to a person being placed on the list, who would have 90 days to request a hearing. If an investigation did not provide a "preponderance of evidence" then a person could not be placed on the list, and except for very serious offenders, names would be removed from the list after 10 years.
Referred to the Committee on Families, Children and Seniors
Reported without amendment
