Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

4 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 0 costs, 3 mixed.

Stronger school background checks and alerts

The Central Repository checks criminal history for people who apply for a school job, volunteer role, or a license from the Superintendent of Public Instruction. It also checks current school employees and volunteers. If a check shows a conviction under NRS 200.508, 201.230, 453.3385, 453.3387, 453.339, any felony, or an offense involving moral turpitude, it must tell the school or administrator right away. It also sends updates if it later finds new convictions. This helps schools and parents know about serious risks.

Faster updates and removal for records

Agencies must send criminal-history records and DNA profile information to the Central Repository within 60 days after a case is disposed. If an agency finds an arrest was for the wrong person, it must tell the Division right away, and the Division deletes all references to that arrest. The Central Repository must set rules for how biometric identifiers are collected, stored, shared, and destroyed. The rules must include a clear way for a person to ask to remove his or her biometric identifiers from the Repository and from any other agency that has them.

Fingerprint rules for FBI background checks

When an agency needs an FBI background report, it must collect and send biometrics to the Central Repository. You give a full set of fingerprints for booking, jobs, contracts, or occupational licenses. One or more fingerprints may be used for mobile identification, and other biometric identifiers may be used for arrests or investigations. The agency then submits the data to the FBI for its report. The Division may share records with other criminal-justice agencies and make agreements with the FBI and other states to exchange background information for people such as license or job applicants. This supports more accurate checks for jobs and licenses.

New incident-based reporting and online crime stats

Law enforcement agencies must send records and Uniform Crime Reports to the state using the National Incident-Based Reporting System, on the schedule set by the Director. The Central Repository posts crime and domestic-violence statistics on its website. It may charge reasonable fees for special publications or reports, but not to agencies that must submit data. Fee money pays operating costs, and leftover funds at year end go to the State General Fund.
