HB1300

The amendment strengthens protections for trafficking and domestic abuse victims by adding a requirement that applicants must demonstrate their safety is at risk if personal information is published, and clarifies that professionals attesting to victim status must also confirm the applicant's good faith belief about safety risks. The change also explicitly preserves victims' existing constitutional and statutory notification rights, narrowing the scope of the clemency notice exemption to apply only when safety is genuinely threatened.

This change converts the bill from its "engrossed" draft form to its final "enrolled" form for signing into law, removing procedural markup language and adding the official legislative certification and signature pages. The substantive policy of the bill—exempting human trafficking and domestic abuse victims from clemency notice requirements—remains unchanged.
