relative to National Guard and Staff Judge Advocate access to criminal history records.

This bill grants the New Hampshire Air National Guard, Army National Guard, and the 157 Air Refueling Wing Staff Judge Advocate offices access to criminal history, investigation, and court records. The law specifically applies to New Hampshire National Guard employees and service members, allowing these offices to retrieve such information to carry out their legal and administrative duties. By adding a new section to state law, the measure ensures that attorneys within these units can access confidential and public records as needed for their responsibilities. The changes become effective 60 days after the bill is passed.
