SB 151-DHSS CENT. REGISTRY; LICNSE; BCKGROUND CHK
1:30:52 PM
CHAIR STEDMAN announced the consideration of SB 151. He noted
the bill was previously heard on February 1, 2016.
1:31:52 PM
STACIE KRALY, Chief Assistant Attorney General, Human Services
Section, Department of Law, reviewed SB 151. She explained that
the bill cleans up and fixes gaps, overlaps, and redundancies
that currently exist in Alaska statute governing criminal
background checks and centralized registry provisions found in
AS 47.05.310 through AS 47.05.390. The bill also removes a
number of redundancies under criminal background check
provisions and clarifies and provides a better structure for the
central registry provisions related to civil findings of an
individual.
She said the third part of the bill contains technical changes
to provisions found under AS 47.32, which relate to centralized
licensing statutes for the Department of Health and Social
Services (DHSS). Those changes allow for collaboration with Law
Enforcement when there is a joint investigation of a licensed
facility. The changes enable information to be shared with Law
Enforcement and they provide a better pathway for sharing of
information within the department.
1:33:38 PM
SENATOR STOLTZE noted concerns expressed by the Department of
Law regarding HB 11 with changes to public access to records. He
said there is uncertainty of the impact SB 11 might have on SB
151. He suggested those concerns can be discussed in the Senate
Judiciary Committee, the next committee of referral.
CHAIR STEDMAN said there have been no concerns raised by the
public on SB 151.
1:35:02 PM
SENATOR GIESSEL moved to report SB 151, labeled 29-GS2013\A,
from committee with individual recommendations and attached zero
fiscal note. There being no objection, it was so ordered.
