CHILD PROTECTION – Adds to existing law to establish provisions regarding the Idaho Child Protection Central Registry.

Summary

The bill creates a new law that stops the state from listing alleged child abusers on the Idaho Child Protection Central Registry unless a criminal charge exists and a hearing shows clear and convincing evidence. It forces the department to give the accused a detailed written notice at least 45 days before any listing and grants them rights to counsel, discovery, and appeal. The goal is to protect individuals’ due‑process rights and limit the harmful effects of wrongful listings.
