The superintendent of the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension shall maintain a computerized data system relating to individuals required to register as predatory offenders under section 243.166 . To the degree feasible, the system must include the data required to be provided under section 243.166 , subdivisions 4, 4a, and 4b, and indicate the time period that the person is required to register. The superintendent shall maintain this data in a manner that ensures that it is readily available to law enforcement agencies. This data is private data on individuals under section 13.02, subdivision 12 , but may be used for law enforcement and corrections purposes. Law enforcement or a corrections agent may disclose the status of an individual as a predatory offender to a child protection worker with a local welfare agency for purposes of doing a family assessment under chapter 260E. A corrections agent may also disclose the status of an individual as a predatory offender to comply with section 244.057 . The commissioner of human services and Direct Care and Treatment executive board have access to the data for state-operated services, as defined in section 246C.02 , for the purposes described in section 246.13, subdivision 2 , paragraph (b), and for purposes of conducting background studies under chapter 245C.
