SB1117 is a bill that requires the Arizona Criminal Justice Commission to create an Open Data System on its website, which will provide public access to a wide range of criminal justice data. This data includes information from law enforcement, prosecuting agencies, courts, the Department of Corrections, Rehabilitation and Reentry, and probation departments. The bill specifies the types of information to be reported and prohibits the release of disaggregated personal identifying information, such as photographs or mugshots.

The bill has been amended to remove a $1.4 million appropriation from the state General Fund for the fiscal year 2025. It also includes definitions for terms used within the bill, ensures that appropriations are exempt from lapsing, and makes technical changes. The bill emphasizes the protection of confidential information and restricts the use of criminal justice data for political or commercial purposes. It passed the committee with a unanimous vote and will take effect on the general effective date.
