LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


AB 2753, as introduced, Eggman. Department of Justice: information system: firearms violations.
Existing law requires the Department of Justice to maintain a statewide telecommunications system for use by law enforcement agencies. Existing law also requires the Attorney General, upon the advice of an advisory committee, to adopt policies, practices and procedures, and conditions of qualification for connection to the system.
This bill would state the intent of the Legislature to subsequently amend this bill to include provisions that would provide information about the likely presence of firearms or ammunition in violation of a firearms prohibition through a California Law Enforcement Telecommunications System search, so as to enable law enforcement to investigate, at the earliest possible moment, whether a violation of a firearm prohibition exists.
Vote: MAJORITY   Appropriation: NO   Fiscal Committee: NO   Local Program: NO  

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:


SECTION 1.
