The committee reconvened. Representative Marshall, prime sponsor, discussed the provisions of HB 06-1112. The bill makes several changes in order to conform Colorado law with federal law regarding juvenile offenders, including court procedures, placement in or sentencing to secure or adult facilities, placement within adult facilities, and inspection and reporting on juvenile facilities. Committee members were provided with Amendments L.002 (Attachment H) and L.003 (Attachment I).

05:11 PM -- Ms. Meg Williams, representing the Colorado Department of Public Safety, Division of Criminal Justice, spoke in favor of the bill. Her unit manages federal funding from the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP), and she explained how the bill will allow Colorado to maintain OJJDP funding and comply with federal guidelines attached to the funds. She noted that local law enforcement officials review state law for guidelines regarding juvenile offenders and, presently, state law does not match federal law.
