AI Summary
This bill amends Arizona law to require law enforcement agencies that receive a report of a missing, kidnapped, or runaway child to take specific actions within a certain timeframe. This includes submitting the child's information to various databases within 2 hours, verifying and updating the record within 30 days, instituting search and investigative procedures, maintaining communication with child welfare systems and the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, and granting permission to update the missing child's record in the national database as new information becomes available. The bill also specifies that entries cannot be removed from these databases until the child is found or the case is closed.
