The proposed bill would update current statutes by continuing the Arizona Criminal Justice Commission (ACJC) for an additional eight years, extending its termination date from July 1, 2025, to July 1, 2033. This change is marked by the insertion of new language that specifies the ACJC's continuation and outlines its purpose, which includes facilitating information exchange and analysis among various public and private agencies related to criminal justice and law enforcement. Additionally, the bill includes a provision that retroactively applies these changes from July 1, 2025.

Furthermore, the bill would repeal the existing statute that sets the ACJC's termination date and related provisions, specifically Section 41-3025.01, and it establishes that the sections concerning the ACJC will be repealed on January 1, 2034. This repeal is part of the broader legislative effort to streamline the ACJC's operations and ensure its ongoing relevance in the state's criminal justice framework.
