Excerpt
Excerpt: History of the National Crime Prevention and Privacy Compact Act of 1998. It was determined in the late 1970s that state criminal history records were more accurate and complete in that the states may have additional arrest and disposition information from state files, such as District Attorney records and court records. Because states have varying statutes or policies that restrict the dissemination of records for noncriminal justice purposes, it was determined a Federal law, or Compact, was necessary to provide interstate criminal record dissemination authority. For this reason, landmark legislation was signed into law on October 9, 1998 - The National Crime Prevention and Privacy Compact (Compact). This legislation continues the dynamic movement toward decentralization of criminal history record information that began in 1978. The Compact became effective April 28, 1999, when ratified by two states, Montana and Georgia (See 42 U.S.C. Sections 14611-14616).
