AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 16 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO FIRE PREVENTION.

Source-provided summary

This Act defines terms used in Chapter 66, Title 16 of the Delaware Code for clarity. It also provides the State Fire Prevention Commission with the authority to receive and review criminal history records of applicants and members to determine whether the applicant or member is prohibited from serving as a member of a fire company. An applicant or member is not qualified to serve as a member if the individual’s criminal history record includes a crime listed in this Act, including felonies, specified financial or property crimes, sex crimes, specified crimes against a victim who is acting in the lawful performance of the victim’s duty, or crimes involving controlled substances or designer drugs. This Act updates the criminal history record language in Chapter 66, Title 16 to ensure Delaware law meets the requirements of the Federal Bureau of Investigation in requesting federal criminal history records. This Act also makes technical corrections to make existing law conform to the standards of the Delaware Legislative Drafting Manual.
