A BILL FOR
HB1313 LRB102 03330 RJF 13343 b
AN ACT concerning government.
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:
Section 5. The Gun Trafficking Information Act is amended
by changing Section 10-5 as follows:
(5 ILCS 830/10-5)
Sec. 10-5. Gun trafficking information.
(a) The The Department of State Police shall use all
reasonable efforts in making publicly available, on a regular
and ongoing basis, key information related to firearms used in
the commission of crimes in this State, including, but not
limited to: reports on crimes committed with firearms,
locations where the crimes occurred, the number of persons
killed or injured in the commission of the crimes, the state
where the firearms used originated, the Federal Firearms
Licensee that sold the firearm, and the type of firearms used.
The Department shall make the information available on its
website, in addition to electronically filing a report with
the Governor and the General Assembly. The report to the
General Assembly shall be filed with the Clerk of the House of
Representatives and the Secretary of the Senate in electronic
form only, in the manner that the Clerk and the Secretary shall
direct.

HB1313 - 2 - LRB102 03330 RJF 13343 b
(b) The Department shall study, on a regular and ongoing
basis, and compile reports on the number of Firearm Owner's
Identification Card checks to determine firearms trafficking
or straw purchase patterns. The Department shall, to the
extent not inconsistent with law, share such reports and
underlying data with academic centers, foundations, and law
enforcement agencies studying firearms trafficking, provided
that personally identifying information is protected. For
purposes of this subsection (b), a Firearm Owner's
Identification Card number is not personally identifying
information, provided that no other personal information of
the card holder is attached to the record. The Department may
create and attach an alternate unique identifying number to
each Firearm Owner's Identification Card number, instead of
releasing the Firearm Owner's Identification Card number
itself.
(c) Each department, office, division, and agency of this
State shall, to the extent not inconsistent with law,
cooperate fully with the Department and furnish the Department
with all relevant information and assistance on a timely basis
as is necessary to accomplish the purpose of this Act. The
Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority shall submit
the information required in subsection (a) of this Section to
the Department of State Police, and any other information as
the Department may request, to assist the Department in
carrying out its duties under this Act.
