A SENATE RESOLUTION urging the legislative council to establish an interim study committee to study the issues regarding a child protection registry.
_______________________, read first time and referred to Committee on
MADAM PRESIDENT:
I offer the following resolution and move its adoption:
A SENATE RESOLUTION urging the legislative council to
establish an interim study committee to study the issues regarding a
child protection registry.
Whereas, A child protection registry is a secure data
base of protected electronic mail addresses and other contact
points;
Whereas, A child protection registry that works as
designed will give parents the ability to protect their children
and will enable Indiana to ensure that our children are
safeguarded against receiving inappropriate information;
Whereas, The establishment of a child protection registry
may be a significant step in helping to keep the children of
Indiana safe; and
Whereas, Some members of the Internet marketing
industry have expressed doubts as to the efficacy of a child
protection registry: Therefore,
SECTION 1. That the legislative council is urged to establish an
interim study committee to study the issues regarding a child protection
registry.
SECTION 2. That the committee, if established, shall operate
under the direction of the legislative council, and that the committee
shall issue a final report when directed to do so by the council.
