Summary:

Chapter 278 of the 2015 Acts of Assembly eliminates the requirement that the Department of Criminal Justice Services establish training courses for undercover investigation work that is designed to be conducted for law-enforcement officers who have not completed the compulsory law-enforcement officer minimum training standards. This action repeals the associated regulations as unnecessary.
