13B.03 FRONT END VERIFICATION AND MATCHING PROGRAMS; RIGHTS OF SUBJECTS.

A public entity may not suspend, terminate, reduce, or make a final denial of employment or a license or other privilege or of assistance under a benefit program, or take other adverse action against an individual as a result of data produced by a matching program or front end verification, until the entity has independently verified the data. If independent verification shows that the data are correct, the entity shall give the individual written notice of its findings and an opportunity to contest the findings. The requirements of this section may be satisfied by verification, notice, hearing, and appeal rights governing the particular benefit program or employment or licensing procedure from which data were obtained to be used in the matching program.
