SEX OFFENDERS REGISTRATION - S.B. 570: FLOOR ANALYSIS
Senate Bill 570 (as reported without amendment)
Sponsor: Senator Joel D. Gougeon
Committee: Families, Mental Health and Human Services
CONTENT
The bill would amend Public Act 222 of 1972, which provides for an official State personal identification card, to make revisions consistent with Senate Bill 566, which would amend the Sex Offenders Registration Act. The bill would take effect on September 1, 1999, and is tie-barred to Senate Bill 566.
The bill would require that the Department of State Police provide to the Secretary of State updated lists of persons required, under the Sex Offenders Registration Act, to maintain a valid driver's license or an official State personal identification card. The Secretary of State would have to make images of those people available to the Department of State Police as provided in Senate Bill 566.
The bill also specifies that the Secretary of State would have to require in-person renewal by a person required, under Senate Bill 566, to maintain a valid driver's license or official State personal identification card.

FISCAL IMPACT
Senate Bills 567 through 570 would have a minimal fiscal impact on State departments and local law enforcement agencies. The bills would require some minor additional costs for departments and agencies that already assume similar duties under the Sex Offenders Registration Act. These costs would include clerical and information programming costs.
The bills also feature requirements that are mandated by the Federal Jacob Wetterling Act, that, if not placed in State law, could result in a 10% reduction to the State of Federal grant funding under the Edward Byrne Memorial State and Local Law Enforcement Assistance Program. Failure to enact the Federal mandates in these bills could result in a loss of $1.6 million in Federal funds to State and local agencies.
