The bill amends Arkansas Code 9-32-101 to enhance the collaboration of state agencies in forming and implementing statewide child abduction response teams. It specifies that the Attorney General's office, along with several other agencies including the Division of Arkansas State Police, Criminal Justice Institute, and Arkansas Sheriffs' Association, will work together to allocate resources and respond to cases involving missing or endangered children. The language clarifies the responsibilities of these agencies, emphasizing the need for coordination and adherence to a memorandum of understanding regarding the implementation of these response teams.

Additionally, the bill removes certain provisions that previously required the Criminal Justice Institute to coordinate the certification and recertification of the response teams. Instead, it focuses on the Division of Arkansas State Police's role in assembling the teams and ensuring that all listed agencies collaborate effectively to respond to abduction incidents and provide preventative measures. Overall, the amendments aim to streamline the process and improve the effectiveness of the state's response to child abduction cases.
