Clarifies confidentiality of criminal history record information for charges dismissed as part of a plea agreement.

This bill amends the Criminal History Record Information Act to clarify that information about criminal charges dismissed as part of a plea agreement is confidential if the defendant did not plead guilty to another criminal charge. It also allows for the use of admissions made during a deferred disposition in later proceedings. The changes follow recommendations from the Criminal Records Review Committee.
