Amend the bill by relettering or renumbering any nonconsecutive Part letter or section number to read consecutively.

summary

This amendment amends the Maine Revised Statutes, Title 16, section 703, subsection 2, paragraph F regarding confidential criminal history record information to be consistent with other changes proposed in the bill. This recommendation of the Criminal Law Advisory Commission was inadvertently omitted from the bill.

It also restores the ability of an insurer to receive confidential investigative records. Public Law 2013, chapter 267, Part A, section 3 inadvertently changed the long-standing practice of law enforcement's sending this information to insurers.
