                           Bill Summary
       
            (Note:  This summary applies to this bill as introduced and does
       not necessarily reflect any amendments that may be subsequently
       adopted.)
       
            Prohibits law enforcement agencies from maintaining a statewide
       concealed handgun permit database.
       
       
       
       Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Colorado:
            SECTION 1.  18-12-206 (3), Colorado Revised Statutes, is
       amended to read:
            18-12-206.  Sheriff - issuance or denial of permits - report. 
       (3) (a)  Each sheriff shall maintain a list of the persons to whom he or she
       issues permits pursuant to this part 2.  Upon request by another criminal
       justice agency for law enforcement purposes, the sheriff may, at his or
       her discretion, share information from the list of permittees with a law
       enforcement agency for the purpose of determining the validity of a
       permit.  A database maintained pursuant to this subsection (3) and any
       database operated by a state agency that includes permittees shall be
       searchable only by name.
            (b)  Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (a) of this
       subsection (3), on and after July 1, 2007 2004, a sheriff shall not share
       information from the list of permittees with a law enforcement agency for
       the purpose of creating a statewide database of permittees, and any law
       enforcement agency that receives information concerning permittees from
       a sheriff shall not use the information to create or maintain a statewide
       database of permittees.  Any information concerning a permittee that is
       included in a statewide database pursuant to paragraph (a) of this
       subsection (3) shall be removed from the database no later than July 1,
       2007 2004.
            SECTION 2.  Safety clause.  The general assembly hereby finds,
       determines, and declares that this act is necessary for the immediate
       preservation of the public peace, health, and safety.
