This bill repeals the existing Chapter 48 of Title 19 of the Idaho Code, which pertains to the Criminal Justice Integrated Data System Act, and introduces a new Chapter 48 in Title 67, named the "Insight Integrated Data Systems Act." The new chapter establishes a centralized data repository managed by the state controller's office, aimed at integrating and sharing data among local governments, state agencies, and volunteer entities involved in criminal justice and behavioral health systems. It emphasizes the protection of sensitive personal information while facilitating data-driven decision-making and creates a Data Oversight Council to oversee the data system and approve data analyses and reports.

Additionally, the bill amends various sections of the Idaho Code to enhance the authority and procedures of the Department of Environmental Quality and the Board of Environmental Quality. Key changes include the removal of references to the Department of Health and Welfare, consolidating environmental protection functions under the Department of Environmental Quality. The bill also updates regulations regarding plumbing, HVAC, and health-related licensing, allowing certain contractors to operate without a contractor's certificate of competency. It establishes new public health measures related to isolation and quarantine orders, clarifies property tax exemptions for pollution control facilities, and ensures that sensitive law enforcement records are exempt from public disclosure. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
