request for approval of collection
information required by section 408 of
the Indian Child Protection and Family
Violence Prevention Act, Public Law
101–630, 104 Stat. 4544, 25 U.S.C.
3201–3211. The IHS is required to
compile a list of all authorized positions
within the IHS where the duties and
responsibilities involve regular contact
with, or control over, Indian children;
and to conduct an investigation of the
character of each individual who is
employed, or is being considered for
employment in a position having
regular contact with, or control over,
Indian children. Section 3207(b) of the
Indian Child Protection and Family
Violence Prevention Act was amended
by Section 814 of S. 3031, the Native
American Laws Technical Corrections
Act of 2000, which requires that the
regulations prescribing the minimum
standards of character ensure that none
of the individuals appointed to
positions involving regular contact with,
or control over Indian children have
been found guilty of, or entered a plea
of nolo contendere or guilty to any
felonious offense, or any of two or more
misdemeanor offenses under Federal,
State, or Tribal law involving crimes of
violence; sexual assault, molestation,
exploitation, contact or prostitution,
crimes against persons; or offenses
committed against children. In addition,
42 U.S.C. 13041 requires each agency of
the Federal government and every
facility operated by the Federal
government (or operated under contract
with the Federal government), that hires
(or contracts for hire) individuals
involved with children under the age of
18 or child care services to assure that
all existing and newly-hired employees
undergo a criminal history background
check. The background is to be initiated
through the personnel program of the
applicable Federal agency. This section
requires employment applications for
individuals who are seeking work for an
agency of the Federal government, or for
a facility or program operated by (or
through contract with) the Federal
government, in positions involved with
the provision to children under the age
of 18 or child care services, to contain
a question asking whether the
individual has ever been arrested for or
charged with a crime involving a child.
