Fingerprint-Based Background Check/Technical Correction

What it does

The legislature's own summary of the bill, or its official long title.

This Act makes a technical correction to the specific categories of persons required to obtain a fingerprint-based background check under Chapter 83 of Title 29 of the Delaware Code to comply with the requirements of Public Law (Pub. L.) 92-544 for access to FBI criminal history record information. The Department of Finance applied for federal “Rap Back” reporting and was denied, so the unacceptable language is being eliminated to facilitate access.
