MDES background check requirements; amend to ensure compliance with certain Internal Revenue Service regulations.

Changed the list of individuals requiring background checks to explicitly include every employee, contractor, and subcontractor with FTI access, rather than limiting it to specific categories.

Added a new requirement that background investigations must ensure consistency with IRS background investigation requirements for FTI access.

Clarified that fingerprinting and FBI checks are required for all department personnel with FTI access to align with federal standards.

Minor formatting and markup changes between the 'As Introduced' and 'As Passed' versions, including removal of some asterisks and consolidation of subsection labels.
