     An act to prescribe a method for the fingerprinting of

 

residents of the state; , and to provide for the recording and

 

filing thereof of the fingerprints by the central records division

 

of the department of state police; and to impose a fee.

processing the fingerprints and completing a criminal record check

 


of a resident of this state when the impression of the fingerprints

 

are requested for employment-related or licensing-related purposes.

 

A fee shall not be collected under this subsection if a fee for

 

taking and processing fingerprints is collected under any other

 

law. The fee shall not exceed the actual cost of taking and

are.

police may charge a fee of $10.00 for processing and completing a

 

name-based criminal record check. However, a fee shall not be

 

charged under this subsection if a fee for processing the name-

 

based criminal record check is charged under any other law or if

performing employment or volunteer employment name-based background

 

checks through the internet criminal history access tool (ICHAT).
