Ind. Gov't. - "Lawmakers now turn attention to compromises"
Bryan Corbin of the Evansville Courier & Press writes today with "a look back and ahead as the 2007 session hurtles to a conclusion."
One bill mentioned is SB 403, on identity theft, which has passed both houses in the same form and is eligible for the Governor's signature. This bill appears to cure deficiencies in the current law -- see this Feb. 10th ILB entry, which read in part:
Yesterday the ILB pointed to deficiencies in the current Indiana law. One missing provision that would have been very helpful to those affected by the State of Indiana's error would have been a law allowing consumers to freeze access to their credit files to prevent crooks from opening fraudulent accounts using stolen information.
