Establishes a process for regulating the collecting, recording, and disclosing of confidential information by state employees.

This bill aims to create rules for how state employees handle confidential information. It will set guidelines for collecting, recording, and sharing this sensitive data to protect individuals' privacy. The goal is to ensure that confidential information is managed responsibly and securely.

Supporters of the bill would argue that it is a necessary step towards enhancing privacy protections for individuals whose information is handled by state employees. By establishing clear regulations, the bill promotes accountability and transparency in government operations, fostering public trust in how personal data is managed.
