Summary

When Chapter 86, Title 11 was created in 1982, the criminal history file was the only automated database to which criminal justice users had electronic access. Furthermore, the criminal file itself was only a skeleton of the record, and pertinent information or facts of the case were not included. As technology has advanced, and the need for more information has increased, new databases and processes have been added. However, Chapter 86, Title 11 has not been amended to address these technological and informational advances. This Act clarifies the role and authority of the Delaware Criminal Justice Information System (DELJIS) Board of Managers. Furthermore, this Act is intended to amend Chapter 86, Title 11 to more accurately reflect the processes that are currently in place and the file access to current databases. This Act not only addresses what the roles and responsibilities are for each authorized agency, but also defines the authority that the DELJIS Board of Managers has to grant or subsequently deny system access. This Act also makes technical corrections to conform existing law to the guidelines of the Delaware Legislative Drafting Manual.
