Existing law establishes the Firearms Safety and Enforcement Special Fund, a continuously appropriated fund, for use by the Department of Justice for specified purposes related to weapons and firearms regulation. Existing law provides that certain persons, including, among others, felons, and certain persons suffering from mental illness, as specified, are prohibited from possessing firearms. Existing law requires the Attorney General to establish and maintain an online database to be known as the Prohibited Armed Persons File, sometimes referred to as the Armed Prohibited Persons System, to cross-reference persons who have ownership or possession of a firearm with those who are prohibited from owning or possessing a firearm. This bill would appropriate the sum of $5,000,000 from the Firearms Safety and Enforcement Special Fund to the Department of Justice for the 2014–15 fiscal year to contract with local law enforcement agencies to reduce the backlog of individuals who are identified by the Armed Prohibited Persons System as illegally possessing firearms. The bill would additionally appropriate from the fund, $3,333,334 for the 2014–15 fiscal year, and $3,333,333 for each of the 2015–16 and 2016–17 fiscal years, to the department to redesign and update specified computer systems related to firearms, as specified. The bill would appropriate an additional $50,000 from the fund to the department for the 2014–15 fiscal year to provide training to local law enforcement agencies on the use of the Automated Firearms System. The bill would require that the training be completed on or before June 1, 2015.
