AN ACT to require the general statutes commission to identify the collateral consequences for all criminal convictions, as recommended by the joint select committee on ex‑offender reintegration into society.

The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:

SECTION 1.  The General Statutes Commission, in consultation with the School of Government and the Administrative Office of the Courts, shall provide a report to the General Assembly no later than the beginning of the 2012 Regular Session of the 2011 General Assembly identifying (i) the collateral consequences for all criminal convictions, (ii) which offenses carry ambiguous or multiple types of consequences, whether by statute or rule, and (iii) whether collateral consequences should be codified in one section of the General Statutes, or in some other manner, in order to provide clarity and consistency in the application of these consequences.  

SECTION 2.  This act is effective when it becomes law.
