I need some help on this one. This is in the bill:
Section 1. Minnesota Statutes 2016, section 13.87, subdivision 2, is amended to read:
Subd. 2. Firearms data. All data pertaining to the purchase or transfer of firearms, the
possession of assault weapons, and applications for permits to carry firearms
which that are
collected by government entities pursuant to sections 624.712 to 624.719 are private
, pursuant
to section 13.02, subdivision 12 data on individuals.
note: I have not highlighted additions to the text, but have noted proposed deletions by making them red.
https://www.revisor.mn.gov/statutes/?id=13.0213.02 says that "private data on individuals" means:
§Subd. 12.Private data on individuals. "Private data on individuals" are data made by statute or federal law applicable to the data: (a) not public; and (b) accessible to the individual subject of those data.
If I'm reading that correctly, you can get a copy of your own record, but nobody else can. Is that right?
Does the deletion of the reference to 13.02 in the bill mean that they are going to try and redefine "private data on individuals" to mean what they want it to mean, and that it'll mean the data is public, or am I misunderstanding this entirely.
Thanks in advance.
