Current through June, 2024

				  of such information obtained from the FBI shall be subject to federal laws and
				  regulations.
(b) The department may
				  disclose information that an affected individual's criminal history record
				  check shows a "clean criminal history record". Federal law (
				  28
				  U.S.C. §534 ) otherwise prohibits the
				  disclosure of criminal history information obtained from the FBI. An FBI
				  identification record and information contained therein, however, may be
				  disclosed to the affected individual when explaining decisions or contemplated
				  decisions resulting in refusal to certify an applicant for a driver education
				  instructor certificate or termination of a driver education instructor
				  certificate. Information from an FBI identification record may also be
				  disclosed to a legal representative of the applicant with the consent of the
				  affected individual and may also be displayed, with the consent of the affected
				  individual, at an administrative hearing to resolve issues concerning the
				  record's content and use. If desired, the affected individual may also request
				  the correction of FBI criminal history information by following FBI rules to
				  correct the FBI identification record.
(c) Criminal history information obtained
				  from sources other than the FBI may be categorized into criminal convictions
				  and arrest records, Criminal convictions are considered public records and may
				  be disclosed to the general public. Arrest records are private and shall not be
				  released by the department except in the process of verifying the disposition
				  of the arrests, or as otherwise required by law. Information regarding a
				  person's arrest records for offenses that may pose a risk to the health,
				  safety, or well-being of children may be used as the basis to delay driver
				  education instructor certificate decisions or for the suspension of a driver
				  education instructor certificate pending further inquiry and investigation.
				  Arrest records shall not be used as the sole basis to refuse a driver education
				  instructor certificate.
