Bureau of Criminal Apprehension required to perform background checks at the request of the Office of the Legislative Auditor.

This bill requires the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension to conduct background checks when requested by the Office of the Legislative Auditor. It amends Minnesota law to officially add the Legislative Auditor to the list of agencies authorized to request criminal history information from the Bureau. The change expands access to criminal background records for oversight purposes, allowing the Auditor to verify information related to public safety and financial matters. This provision applies specifically to the Office of the Legislative Auditor and does not alter existing background check procedures for other agencies.
