Bill Summary

An Act To Amend Title 4 Of The Delaware Code Relating To The Delaware Marijuana Control Act.

AI Summary

This bill makes a technical amendment to the Delaware Marijuana Control Act, specifically modifying the requirements for background checks. The bill removes the word "agent" from two sections of the existing law, which narrows the scope of individuals who must undergo a fingerprint-based background check. The change appears to be aimed at ensuring compliance with Public Law 92-544, which governs access to FBI criminal history record information. Specifically, the bill affects who must complete a background check when seeking to become or currently serving as a director, officer, or board member of a licensed marijuana establishment or a business seeking a marijuana establishment license. By removing "agent" from the existing language, the bill refines the categories of people subject to these background check requirements, potentially simplifying the administrative process for marijuana-related businesses in Delaware while maintaining necessary oversight.
