This bill amends Arkansas Code 12-12-312(a)(1)(A)(ii) to expand the list of individuals who can receive confidential and privileged records from the State Crime Laboratory. The new addition specifies that the Arkansas Drug Director is now included among those authorized to access these records.
The inclusion of the Arkansas Drug Director aims to enhance the state's ability to manage and respond to drug-related issues by ensuring that relevant information is accessible to key officials. This change reflects a commitment to improving public safety and drug enforcement efforts in Arkansas.
