The bill amends Section 49-202 of the Idaho Code, which outlines the duties of the Department of Motor Vehicles. A significant addition to this section is the requirement that all employees, agents, and contractors of the department who have access to the source systems used by the division of motor vehicles must complete data security compliance training and pass a federal Bureau of Investigation criminal background check. The department is tasked with administering access to these systems and providing the necessary training.

Additionally, the bill declares an emergency, stating that it will take effect on July 1, 2025. This urgency suggests that the legislature recognizes the importance of enhancing data security measures within the department to protect sensitive information related to motor vehicle records.
