NATIONAL EXPANDED CRIMINAL HISTORY

YOUR CONTRACT WILL NOT BE APPROVED WITHOUT THE SUBMISSION OF CURRENT EXPANDED CRIMINAL HISTORY and Expanded Child Protection Index Checks MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF HOUSE ENROLLED ACT 1462 FOR ALL CONTRACTORS OR INDIVIDUALS THAT WILL HAVE DIRECT OR ONGOING CONTACT WITH IPS STUDENTS.

Effective July 1, 2009, House Enrolled Act 1462 passed by the Indiana General Assembly requires that a current expanded criminal history check must be filed with the Board for each Contractor and Contractor employee that is likely to have direct or ongoing contact with IPS students.

An expanded criminal history check as defined by House Enrolled Act 1462, is a criminal history background check that includes a:

1. Search of records of all counties in Indiana and all counties or other governmental units in all states in which the individual resided or a national criminal history background check as defined in Indiana Code 10-13-3-12*, and

2. Check of sex offender registries in all 50 states or the national sex offender registry maintained by the United States Department of Justice and expanded Child Protection Index Check (DCS check)

*10-13-3-12: National Criminal History Background Check: As used in this chapter, “national criminal history background check” means the criminal history record system maintained by the Federal Bureau of Investigation based on fingerprint identification or any other method of positive identification.

Contractors and their legal counsel shall review the requirements of House Enrolled Act 1462 (which defines an expanded criminal history check and modifies Indiana Code 2026-5-10) and file with the Board a current (no older than 90 days) expanded criminal history report meeting the requirements of House Enrolled Act 1462 for each Contractor, Contractor employee, or any person engaged by the Contractor who will have direct or on-going contact with IPS students during its course of work for the Board.

It is the full responsibility of the Contractor to obtain and file the expanded criminal history checks meeting the requirements of House Enrolled Act 1462 for every individual that will provide services and have direct or on-going contact with IPS students during the Contractor’s course of work for the Board.

Contractor will pay all expenses related to obtaining the expanded criminal history check.

These requirements are in addition to all requirements related to criminal history stated in your contract with the Board. Failure to meet these requirements will be sufficient cause for the immediate termination of your contract.
