REVISED
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS30825 / H0490
This bill allows the division administrator, unless otherwise prohibited by law or rule, to conduct fingerprint
criminal background checks as a requirement for licensure and registration, revises language concerning
fingerprinting to align the procedures employed by the various boards and commissions governed by the
division of occupational and professional licenses, and simplifies the fingerprinting process for applicants.
FISCAL NOTE
This legislation is anticipated to have no impact on the state’s General Fund or any dedicated fund or federal
fund because the legislation cleans up the relevant fingerprinting sections of Idaho Code and makes clear the
fingerprinting responsibilities of the Division Administrator.
