AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 29 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO THE DEPARTMENT OF TECHNOLOGY AND INFORMATION AND CRIMINAL BACKGROUND CHECKS.
Summary
This Act mandates that all individuals who have received a conditional offer of employment with DTI and any contractor or third party that requires access to DTI systems, facilities, or data, must undergo a state and federal criminal background check through the State Bureau of Identification. This Substitute bill clarifies that only individuals who have received a conditional offer of employment must submit to a background check, rather that all those individuals that have applied. It also removes the requirement that individuals submitting to background checks are responsible for the costs of those background checks.
