  1.30     We, the undersigned conferees for S.F. No. 1068, report 
  1.31  that we have agreed upon the items in dispute and recommend as 
  1.32  follows: 
  1.33     
  1.34     That the House recede from its amendments and that S.F. No. 
  1.35  1068 be further amended as follows: 
  1.36     Delete everything after the enacting clause and insert: 
  2.1      "Section 1.  Minnesota Statutes 2000, section 13.02, 
  2.2   subdivision 11, is amended to read: 
  2.3      Subd. 11.  [POLITICAL SUBDIVISION.] "Political subdivision" 
  2.4   means any county, statutory or home rule charter city, school 
  2.5   district, special district, any town exercising powers under 
  2.6   chapter 368 and located in the metropolitan area, as defined in 
  2.7   section 473.121, subdivision 2, and any board, commission, 
  2.8   district or authority created pursuant to law, local ordinance 
  2.9   or charter provision.  It includes any nonprofit corporation 
  2.10  which is a community action agency organized pursuant to the 
  2.11  Economic Opportunity Act of 1964 (Public Law Number 88-452) as 
  2.12  amended, to qualify for public funds, or any nonprofit social 
  2.13  service agency which performs services under contract to any 
  2.14  political subdivision, statewide system or state agency, to the 
  2.15  extent that the nonprofit social service agency or nonprofit 
  2.16  corporation collects, stores, disseminates, and uses data on 
  2.17  individuals because of a contractual relationship with state 
  2.18  agencies, political subdivisions or statewide systems. 
  2.19     Sec. 2.  Minnesota Statutes 2000, section 13.072, 
  2.20  subdivision 2, is amended to read: 
  2.21     Subd. 2.  [EFFECT.] Opinions issued by the commissioner 
  2.22  under this section are not binding on the state agency, 
  2.23  statewide system, or political subdivision whose data is the 
  2.24  subject of the opinion, but must be given deference by a court 
  2.25  in a proceeding involving the data.  The commissioner shall 
  2.26  arrange for public dissemination of opinions issued under this 
  2.27  section.  This section does not preclude a person from bringing 
  2.28  any other action under this chapter or other law in addition to 
  2.29  or instead of requesting a written opinion.  A ~~state agency,~~ 
  2.30  ~~statewide system, political subdivision,~~ government entity or 
  2.31  person that acts in conformity with a written opinion of the 
  2.32  commissioner issued to the government entity or person or to 
  2.33  another party is not liable for compensatory or exemplary 
  2.34  damages or awards of attorneys fees in actions under section 
  2.35  13.08 or for a penalty under section 13.09. 
  2.36     Sec. 3.  Minnesota Statutes 2000, section 13.08, 
  3.1   subdivision 4, is amended to read: 
  3.2      Subd. 4.  [ACTION TO COMPEL COMPLIANCE.] (a) In addition to 
  3.3   the remedies provided in subdivisions 1 to 3 or any other law, 
  3.4   any aggrieved person seeking to enforce the person's rights 
  3.5   under this chapter or obtain access to data may bring an action 
  3.6   in district court to compel compliance with this chapter and may 
  3.7   recover costs and disbursements, including reasonable attorney's 
  3.8   fees, as determined by the court.  If the court determines that 
  3.9   an action brought under this subdivision is frivolous and 
  3.10  without merit and a basis in fact, it may award reasonable costs 
  3.11  and attorney fees to the responsible authority.  If the court 
  3.12  issues an order to compel compliance under this subdivision, the 
  3.13  court may impose a civil penalty of up to $300 against the 
  3.14  government entity.  This penalty is payable to the state general 
  3.15  fund and is in addition to damages under subdivision 1.  The 
  3.16  matter shall be heard as soon as possible.  In an action 
  3.17  involving a request for government data under section 13.03 or 
  3.18  13.04, the court may inspect in camera the government data in 
  3.19  dispute, but shall conduct its hearing in public and in a manner 
  3.20  that protects the security of data classified as not public.  If 
  3.21  the court issues an order to compel compliance under this 
  3.22  subdivision, the court shall forward a copy of the order to the 
  3.23  commissioner of administration. 
  3.24     (b) In determining whether to assess a civil penalty under 
  3.25  this subdivision, the court shall consider whether the 
  3.26  government entity has substantially complied with general data 
  3.27  practices under this chapter, including but not limited to, 
  3.28  whether the government entity has:  
  3.29     (1) designated a responsible authority under section 13.02, 
  3.30  subdivision 16; 
  3.31     (2) designated a data practices compliance official under 
  3.32  section 13.05, subdivision 13; 
  3.33     (3) prepared the public document that names the responsible 
  3.34  authority and describes the records and data on individuals that 
  3.35  are maintained by the government entity under section 13.05, 
  3.36  subdivision 1; 
  4.1      (4) developed public access procedures under section 13.03, 
  4.2   subdivision 2; procedures to guarantee the rights of data 
  4.3   subjects under section 13.05, subdivision 8; and procedures to 
  4.4   ensure that data on individuals are accurate and complete and to 
  4.5   safeguard the data's security under section 13.05, subdivision 
  4.6   5; 
  4.7      (5) sought an oral, written, or electronic opinion from the 
  4.8   commissioner of administration related to the matter at issue 
  4.9   and acted in conformity with that opinion or acted in conformity 
  4.10  with an opinion issued under section 13.072 that was sought by 
  4.11  another person; or 
  4.12     (6) provided ongoing training to government entity 
  4.13  personnel who respond to requests under this chapter. 
  4.14     Sec. 4.  Minnesota Statutes 2000, section 13.32, is amended 
  4.15  by adding a subdivision to read: 
  4.16     Subd. 5a.  [MILITARY RECRUITMENT.] A secondary institution 
  4.17  shall release to military recruiting officers the names, 
  4.18  addresses, and home telephone numbers of students in grades 11 
  4.19  and 12 within 60 days after the date of the request, except as 
  4.20  otherwise provided by this subdivision.  A secondary institution 
  4.21  shall give parents and students notice of the right to refuse 
  4.22  release of this data to military recruiting officers.  Notice 
  4.23  may be given by any means reasonably likely to inform the 
  4.24  parents and students of the right.  Data released to military 
  4.25  recruiting officers under this subdivision: 
  4.26     (1) may be used only for the purpose of providing 
  4.27  information to students about military service, state and 
  4.28  federal veterans' education benefits, and other career and 
  4.29  educational opportunities provided by the military; and 
  4.30     (2) shall not be further disseminated to any other person 
  4.31  except personnel of the recruiting services of the armed forces.

  6.21     Sec. 7.  [13.591] [BUSINESS DATA.] 
  6.22     Subdivision 1.  [NOT PUBLIC DATA WHEN BENEFIT

  6.36  plans; income and expense projections not related to the 
  7.1   financial assistance provided; customer lists; income tax 
  7.2   returns; and design, market, and feasibility studies not paid 
  7.3   for with public funds. 
  7.4      Subd. 3.  [BUSINESS AS VENDOR.] (a) Data submitted by a 
  7.5   business to a government entity in response to a request for 
  7.6   bids as defined in section 16C.02, subdivision 11, are private 
  7.7   or nonpublic until the bids are opened.  Once the bids are 
  7.8   opened, the name of the bidder and the dollar amount specified 
  7.9   in the response are read and become public.  All other data in a 
  7.10  bidder's response to a bid are private or nonpublic data until 
  7.11  completion of the selection process.  For purposes of this 
  7.12  section, "completion of the selection process" means that the 
  7.13  government entity has completed its evaluation and has ranked 
  7.14  the responses.  After a government entity has completed the 
  7.15  selection process, all remaining data submitted by all bidders 
  7.16  are public with the exception of trade secret data as defined 
  7.17  and classified in section 13.37.  A statement by a bidder that 
  7.18  submitted data are copyrighted or otherwise protected does not 
  7.19  prevent public access to the data contained in the bid. 
  7.20     If all responses to a request for bids are rejected prior 
  7.21  to completion of the selection process, all data, other than 
  7.22  that made public at the bid opening, remain private or nonpublic 
  7.23  until a resolicitation of bids results in completion of the 
  7.24  selection process or a determination is made to abandon the 
  7.25  purchase.  If the rejection occurs after the completion of the 
  7.26  selection process, the data remain public.  If a resolicitation 
  7.27  of bids does not occur within one year of the bid opening date, 
  7.28  the remaining data become public. 
  7.29     (b) Data submitted by a business to a government entity in 
  7.30  response to a request for proposal, as defined in section 
  7.31  16C.02, subdivision 12, are private or nonpublic until the 
  7.32  responses are opened.  Once the responses are opened, the name 
  7.33  of the responder is read and becomes public.  All other data in 
  7.34  a responder's response to a request for proposal are private or 
  7.35  nonpublic data until completion of the evaluation process.  For 
  7.36  purposes of this section, "completion of the evaluation process" 
  8.1   means that the government entity has completed negotiating the 
  8.2   contract with the selected vendor.  After a government entity 
  8.3   has completed the evaluation process, all remaining data 
  8.4   submitted by all responders are public with the exception of 
  8.5   trade secret data as defined and classified in section 13.37.  A 
  8.6   statement by a responder that submitted data are copyrighted or 
  8.7   otherwise protected does not prevent public access to the data 
  8.8   contained in the response. 
  8.9      If all responses to a request for proposal are rejected 
  8.10  prior to completion of the evaluation process, all data, other 
  8.11  than that made public at the response opening, remain private or 
  8.12  nonpublic until a resolicitation of the requests for proposal 
  8.13  results in completion of the evaluation process or a 
  8.14  determination is made to abandon the purchase.  If the rejection 
  8.15  occurs after the completion of the evaluation process, the data 
  8.16  remain public.  If a resolicitation of proposals does not occur 
  8.17  within one year of the proposal opening date, the remaining data 
  8.18  become public.  
  8.19     Sec. 8.  Minnesota Statutes 2000, section 13.719, is 
  8.20  amended by adding a subdivision to read: 
  8.21     Subd. 6.  [AUTOMOBILE INSURANCE.] (a) [GROUP SELF-INSURANCE 
  8.22  DATA.] Financial data relating to nonpublic companies that are 
  8.23  submitted to the commissioner of commerce for the purpose of

  8.27  documents, including income statements, balance sheets, 
  8.28  statements of change in financial positions, and supporting 
  8.29  financial information submitted by nonpublic companies seeking 
  8.30  to self-insure their automobile liability or to be licensed as 
  8.31  self-insurance plan administrators are classified as nonpublic

  9.19  management practices including the use of space, equipment, and

  9.31  head of the governmental unit or agency having custody of the 
  9.32  records and the commissioner, establishing a time period for the

 10.33  sentencing, or to an adult court or juvenile court as required 
 10.34  by the right of confrontation of either the United States 
 10.35  Constitution or the Minnesota Constitution.  The juvenile court 
 10.36  shall provide, upon the request of any other juvenile court, 
 11.1   copies of the records concerning adjudications involving the 
 11.2   particular child.  The court also may provide copies of records 
 11.3   concerning delinquency adjudications, on request, to law 
 11.4   enforcement agencies, probation officers, and corrections agents 
 11.5   if the court finds that providing these records serves public 
 11.6   safety or is in the best interests of the child.  ~~Until July 1,~~ 
 11.7   ~~2001,~~ Juvenile court delinquency proceeding records of 
 11.8   adjudications, court transcripts, and delinquency petitions, 
 11.9   including any probable cause attachments that have been filed or 
 11.10  police officer reports relating to a petition, must be released 
 11.11  to requesting law enforcement agencies and prosecuting 
 11.12  authorities for purposes of investigating and prosecuting 
 11.13  violations of section 609.229, provided that psychological or 
 11.14  mental health reports may not be included with those records.  
 11.15  The agency receiving the records may release the records only as 
 11.16  permitted under this section or authorized by law. 
 11.17     The court shall also keep an index in which files 
 11.18  pertaining to juvenile matters shall be indexed under the name 
 11.19  of the child.  After the name of each file shall be shown the 
 11.20  file number and, if ordered by the court, the book and page of 
 11.21  the register in which the documents pertaining to such file are 
 11.22  listed.  The court shall also keep a register properly indexed 
 11.23  in which shall be listed under the name of the child all 
 11.24  documents filed pertaining to the child and in the order filed.  
 11.25  The list shall show the name of the document and the date of 
 11.26  filing thereof.  The juvenile court legal records shall be 
 11.27  deposited in files and shall include the petition, summons, 
 11.28  notice, findings, orders, decrees, judgments, and motions and 
 11.29  such other matters as the court deems necessary and proper.  
 11.30  Unless otherwise provided by law, all court records shall be 
 11.31  open at all reasonable times to the inspection of any child to 
 11.32  whom the records relate, and to the child's parent and guardian. 
 11.33     (b) The court shall retain records of the court finding 
 11.34  that a juvenile committed an act that would be a felony- or 
 11.35  gross misdemeanor level offense until the offender reaches the 
 11.36  age of 28.  If the offender commits a felony as an adult, or the 
 12.1   court convicts a child as an extended jurisdiction juvenile, the 
 12.2   court shall retain the juvenile records for as long as the 
 12.3   records would have been retained if the offender had been an 
 12.4   adult at the time of the juvenile offense.  This paragraph does 
 12.5   not apply unless the juvenile was provided counsel as required 
 12.6   by section 260B.163, subdivision 2. 
 12.7      Sec. 13.  Minnesota Statutes 2000, section 299C.095,

 12.9      Subdivision 1.  [ACCESS TO DATA ON JUVENILES.] (a) The 
 12.10  bureau shall administer and maintain the computerized juvenile 
 12.11  history record system based on sections 260B.171 and 260C.171 
 12.12  and other statutes requiring the reporting of data on 
 12.13  juveniles.  The data in the system are private data as defined 
 12.14  in section 13.02, subdivision 12, but are accessible to criminal 
 12.15  justice agencies as defined in section 13.02, subdivision 3a, to 
 12.16  all trial courts and appellate courts, to a person who has 
 12.17  access to the juvenile court records as provided in sections 
 12.18  260B.171 and 260C.171 or under court rule, to public defenders 
 12.19  as provided in section 611.272, and to criminal justice agencies 
 12.20  in other states in the conduct of their official duties. 
 12.21     (b) Except for access authorized under paragraph (a), the 
 12.22  bureau shall only disseminate a juvenile adjudication history 
 12.23  record in connection with a background check required by statute 
 12.24  or rule and performed on a licensee, license applicant, or 
 12.25  employment applicant or performed under section 299C.62 or 
 12.26  624.713.  If the background check is performed under section 
 12.27  299C.62, juvenile adjudication history disseminated under this 
 12.28  paragraph is limited to offenses that would constitute a 
 12.29  background check crime as defined in section 299C.61, 
 12.30  subdivision 2.  A consent for release of information from an 
 12.31  individual who is the subject of a juvenile adjudication history 
 12.32  is not effective and the bureau shall not release a juvenile 
 12.33  adjudication history record and shall not release information in 
 12.34  a manner that reveals the existence of the record. 
 12.35     Sec. 14.  Minnesota Statutes 2000, section 299C.13, is 
 12.36  amended to read: 
 13.1      299C.13 [INFORMATION FURNISHED TO PEACE OFFICER.] 
 13.2      Upon receipt of information data as to any arrested person, 
 13.3   the bureau shall immediately ascertain whether the person 
 13.4   arrested has a criminal record or is a fugitive from justice, 
 13.5   and shall at once inform the arresting officer of the facts 
 13.6   ascertained, including references to any juvenile or adult court 
 13.7   disposition data that are not in the criminal history system.  
 13.8   Upon application by any sheriff, chief of police, or other peace 
 13.9   officer in the state, or by an officer of the United States or 
 13.10  by an officer of another state, territory, or government duly 
 13.11  authorized to receive the same and effecting reciprocal 
 13.12  interchange of similar information with the division, it shall 
 13.13  be the duty of the bureau to furnish all information in its 
 13.14  possession pertaining to the identification of any person.  If 
 13.15  the bureau has a sealed record on the arrested person, it shall 
 13.16  notify the requesting peace officer of that fact and of the 
 13.17  right to seek a court order to open the record for purposes of 
 13.18  law enforcement.  A criminal justice agency shall be notified, 
 13.19  upon request, of the existence and contents of a sealed record 
 13.20  containing conviction information about an applicant for 
 13.21  employment.  For purposes of this section a "criminal justice 
 13.22  agency" means courts or a government agency that performs the 
 13.23  administration of criminal justice under statutory authority. 
 13.24     Sec. 15.  Minnesota Statutes 2000, section 299C.61, is

 14.1   adjudicated delinquent for violating section 609.342 (criminal 
 14.2   sexual conduct in the first degree), 609.343 (criminal sexual

 14.13  which has been demonstrated epidemiologically to transmit the 
 14.14  human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).  
 14.15     (b) When the court orders an offender to submit to testing 
 14.16  under paragraph (a), the court shall order that the test be 
 14.17  performed by an appropriate health professional who is trained 
 14.18  to provide the counseling described in section 144.7414, and 
 14.19  that no reference to the test, the motion requesting the test, 
 14.20  the test order, or the test results may appear in the criminal 
 14.21  record or be maintained in any record of the court or court 
 14.22  services, except in the medical record maintained by the 
 14.23  department of corrections.

 14.26  as defined in section 13.02, subdivision 12, when maintained by 
 14.27  a person subject to chapter 13, or may be released only with the

 14.36  of the test are not accessible to any other person for any 
 15.1   purpose and shall not be maintained in any record of the court 
 15.2   or court services or any other record.  After the test results 
 15.3   are given to the victim or the victim's parent or guardian, data 
 15.4   on the test must be removed from any medical data or health 
 15.5   records maintained under section 13.384 or 144.335 and 
 15.6   destroyed, except for those medical records maintained by the 
 15.7   department of corrections.
