SB 414 - Under current law, law enforcement agencies which violate certain requirements for the submission of crime incident reports and information may be ineligible to receive state or federal funds which would otherwise be paid to them. This act removes such ineligibility as a potential consequence for such violations. Also under current law, law enforcement agencies involved in federal forfeiture programs are required to report certain information to the Department of Public Safety and the State Auditor by January 31st of each year. This act removes the requirement to report this information to the Department of Public Safety and moves the reporting deadline from January 31st to February 15th. This act also removes language relating to the information that must be included in the report, and requires the report to consist of a copy of a certain form which must be submitted to the federal government. This act also requires the approval of the director of the Department of Public Safety for the expenditure of funds raised by the collection of fees for the usage of criminal history record information, and specifies that a portion of those funds to be determined by the director will be made available to local and county law enforcement agencies by way of a grant. This act is identical to HB 1172 (2017), identical to provisions of HCB 9 (2017), and similar to provisions of SCS/HCS/HB 57 (2017) and provisions of SS#2/SCS/HCS/HBs 302 & 228 (2017). JOHN GRANA
