ADOPTED 2/13/2010

On page 1, after line 4, insert the following:

    "NEW SECTION. Sec. 1. It is the legislature's intent to eventually automatically restrict access to juvenile offender records at age eighteen provided the offender meets certain requirements. The legislature recognizes that because of information technology differences in the computer systems used by the various agencies that would be involved in automatically restricting access to juvenile offender records, this goal cannot be currently accomplished without a significant fiscal impact. Nevertheless, the legislature intends that the agencies involved begin to work together to achieve the goal of  automatically restricting juvenile offender records within the near future."

    Renumber the remaining sections consecutively and correct any internal references accordingly.

    On page 7, line 38, after "company." insert "This subsection does not apply to those records maintained or disseminated under chapter 36.28A RCW."

    Correct the title.

EFFECT: Adds an intent section to clarify that, at some point in the near future, it is the legislature's intent to have access to juvenile offender records automatically restricted. Clarifies that the records maintained and distributed by WASPC is not affected by the provision that prohibits state and local agencies from selling or disseminating juvenile offender records.
