S T A T E O F N E W Y O R K ________________________________________________________________________ 5932 2015-2016 Regular Sessions I N S E N A T E June 12, 2015 ___________ Introduced by Sen. SAVINO -- read twice and ordered printed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Rules AN ACT relating to technology systems used for locating missing children with developmental disabilities THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. The legislature hereby finds that the tragedy of Avonte Oquendo who wandered away from his school never to be found alive again highlights the continuing need to find ways to protect children with developmental disabilities. Furthermore, the legislature finds that timing plays a crucial role in preventing wandering incidents and wandering-related deaths of children with autism or other developmental disabilities. Because of this, the legislature finds that coordination of search and rescue protocols that involve locator devices work most effectively when systems are coordinated. S 2. The commissioner of the division of criminal justice services, in consultation with the commissioner of the office for people with devel- opmental disabilities, shall review information technology systems used for locating missing children with developmental disabilities including those that have been established by local governments for locating miss- ing persons for the purpose of making recommendations on the creation of a statewide communication program that could be utilized by entities operating such locator systems. Such review shall include but not be limited to: a. a survey of all current information technology systems used by local governments including but not limited to global positioning systems, radiotermination technology, telemetry and satellite position- ing systems; b. an analysis of appropriate means for coordination of information sharing amongst entities that currently utilize locator systems; EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted.
