The committee considered and approved changes to administrative rule 11.10.03 governing the offender registry to reflect a technical change in how offender photographs are transferred.
Lieutenant Colonel Russ Wheatley explained that when the Sheriff's Office previously uploaded photographs they used the DMV network; after DMV changed systems the photo-transfer function was removed so ISP and local sheriff's offices now use a new direct transfer protocol from the sheriff's office to ISP. Wheatley said the rule change is to make the administrative rule match the new technical process; ISP reported no public concerns. Senator Lakey moved to approve the docket and Senator Foreman seconded; the motion carried by voice vote.
Committee members recorded no public comment and approved the administrative change.
