Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Child Care Act of 1969. In provisions concerning criminal background investigations, provides that a child care facility may authorize the Department of Children and Family Services or a third-party vendor to complete the investigation. Provides that an applicant is determined to have completed the criminal background investigation when he or she has completed and submitted authorization for the performance of a criminal background investigation by either the Department or a third party contracted to perform the criminal background investigation. Makes conforming changes.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts the provisions of the introduced bill with the following changes: Defines the terms "third-party vendor" and "conditional employee". Provides that a child care facility, non-licensed service provider, day care center, group day care home, or day care home may authorize the Department of Children and Family Services or a third-party vendor to complete the investigation. Provides that a conditional employee may work in a child care facility if the conditional employee is supervised by a licensed employee.

House Floor Amendment No. 2
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Child Care Act of 1969. Provides that a child care facility, non-licensed service provider, day care center, group day care home, or day care home may authorize the Department of Children and Family Services or a third-party vendor to collect fingerprints for the criminal background investigation. Defines “third-party vendor”.

House Floor Amendment No. 3
Removes a provision limiting specified authorizations to instances where the Department of Children and Family Services collects fingerprints for the investigation.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 1
Replaces everything after the enacting clause with the engrossed bill, but provides that if a third-party vendor is used for fingerprinting, then the child care facility, non-licensed service provider, day care center, group day care home, or day care home shall pay the third party for that service directly.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 2
Provides that, if a child care facility, non-licensed service provider, day care center, group day care home, or day care home authorizes the Department of Children and Family Services or a third-party vendor (rather than the Department of Children and Family Services) to collect fingerprints for an investigation, the Director of Children and Family Services shall request and receive information and assistance from any federal, State, or local governmental agency as part of the authorized investigation.
