AN ACT

To repeal section 43.530, RSMo, and to enact in lieu thereof one new section relating to criminal history record information.

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the state of Missouri, as follows:

            Section A. Section 43.530, RSMo, is repealed and one new section enacted in lieu thereof, to be known as section 43.530, to read as follows:

            43.530. For each request received by the central repository, as defined in subdivision (1) of section 43.500, the requesting entity shall pay a fee of not more than five dollars per request for criminal history record information and pay a fee of not more than fourteen dollars per request for classification and search of fingerprints. Each such request shall be limited to check and search on one individual. Each request shall be accompanied by a check, warrant, voucher, [or] money order, or electronic payment payable to the state of Missouri-criminal record system. The highway patrol may establish procedures for receiving requests for criminal history record information for classification and search for fingerprints, from courts and other entities, and for the payment of such requests. There is hereby established by the treasurer of the state of Missouri a fund to be entitled as the "Criminal Record System Fund". Notwithstanding the provisions of section 33.080, RSMo, to the contrary, if the moneys collected and deposited into this fund are not totally expended annually for the purposes set forth in section 43.527, the unexpended moneys in such fund shall remain in the fund and the balance shall be kept in the fund to accumulate from year to year.
