Summary

This bill makes several changes to the Child Protection Registry. First, it provides the requirement for a hearing for every child prior to placement on the registry and requires the appointment of counsel. The bill reorganizes the Court findings required for placement on the registry by creating a new Section, 925A. The bill sets out criteria to be considered by the Court for early removal from the registry and provides a mechanism for persons to be removed from the registry if they were placed on the registry as a child. The bill adds new child abuse crimes to the registry. The bill extends the timeline to file a Petition. Finally, the bill provides for a Limited Purpose Hearing for those who are placed on the registry as a result of a criminal conviction.
