Bill No. 2892 amends existing laws related to the Oklahoma Commission on Children and Youth and the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI). The bill authorizes the Executive Director of the Commission to request investigations by the OSBI or other law enforcement agencies when there is reasonable belief of criminally injurious conduct, including physical or sexual abuse of a child. This replaces the previous language that required cases involving children to be transferred to the jurisdiction of the OSBI. Additionally, the bill expands the list of individuals who can initiate investigations by the OSBI to include the Executive Director of the Oklahoma Commission on Children and Youth.

The amendments also include provisions for confidentiality regarding investigation records and specify that unauthorized disclosure of such information is a misdemeanor. The bill outlines the conditions under which confidential information may be shared, including with law enforcement agencies and for training purposes after a specified period. The effective date for these changes is set for November 1, 2025.
