For the Criminal Justice Information System, the Secretary of Public Safety and Correctional Services and the Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals adopt rules and regulations. These govern the collection, reporting, and release of criminal history record information by the courts and other criminal justice agencies; ensure security for the System and all criminal history record information; and control the dissemination of such information consistent with federal law and regulations.
Any person may inspect his or her own criminal history record information as maintained by a criminal justice agency. Rules and regulations of the Criminal Justice Information System specify how to inspect and challenge criminal history record information, and have errors corrected.
For budgetary and administrative purposes, the Board is within the Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services. Under the Department, the Central Repository of the Criminal Justice Information System collects, stores, and disseminates criminal history record information. Every criminal justice agency must report criminal history record information to the Repository.
The Board consists of twenty-two members (Code Criminal Procedure Article, secs. 10-201 through 10-234).
