Automated license plate reader provisions modifications to address the role of third-party service providers

Summary

The legislation amends Minnesota’s automated license‑plate reader law to define “third‑party service provider,” require detailed logs and biennial independent audits that include any contractor‑held data, and mandate written, case‑specific authorization for any internal or external access. It also makes audit results public, obligates agencies to report them to legislative leaders, and gives the commissioner of administration authority to suspend scanner use for serious non‑compliance. The changes affect law‑enforcement agencies, the contractors they use, and anyone querying the data.
