HCS HB 2161 -- DRIVER'S LICENSE APPLICATION INFORMATION

SPONSOR:  Guest

COMMITTEE ACTION:  Voted "do pass by consent" by the Committee on
Real ID and Personal Privacy by a vote of 11 to 0.

Currently, the sale of driver's license application information
to other organizations or states for commercial purposes is
prohibited.  This substitute specifies that "commercial purposes"
will not include driver's license application information used,
compiled, or obtained solely for purposes expressly allowed under
the Missouri or federal Drivers Privacy Protection Act.

FISCAL NOTE:  No impact on state funds in FY 2011, FY 2012, and
FY 2013.

PROPONENTS:  Supporters say that "commercial purposes" is too
vague and clarification is needed to ensure that legal uses of
the data are not prohibited.

Testifying for the bill were Representative Guest; and Reed
Elsevier Incorporated.

OPPONENTS:  There was no opposition voiced to the committee.
