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 in cases where there is reasonable belief of criminally injurious conduct, including physical or sexual abuse of a child. This replaces the previous language that required cases to be transferred to the jurisdiction of the Commission. 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 the confidentiality of investigation records and the conditions under which information may be disclosed. Specifically, it clarifies that unauthorized disclosure of confidential information is a misdemeanor and outlines the circumstances under which information can be shared with law enforcement and other relevant agencies. The bill is set to take effect on November 1, 2025.
