Paragraph (a) of subdivision 2 of section 422 of the 2 social services law, as amended by chapter 574 of the laws of 2008, is 3 amended to read as follows: 4 (a) The central register shall be capable of receiving telephone calls 5 alleging child abuse or maltreatment and of immediately identifying 6 prior reports of child abuse or maltreatment and capable of monitoring 7 the provision of child protective service twenty-four hours a day, seven 8 days a week. To effectuate this purpose, but subject to the provisions 9 of the appropriate local plan for the provision of child protective 10 services, there shall be a single statewide telephone number that all 11 persons, whether mandated by the law or not, may use to make telephone 12 calls alleging child abuse or maltreatment and that all persons so 13 authorized by this title may use for determining the existence of prior 14 reports in order to evaluate the condition or circumstances of a child. 15 In addition to the single statewide telephone number, there shall be a 16 special unlisted express telephone number and a telephone facsimile 17 number for use only by persons mandated by law to make telephone calls, 18 or to transmit telephone facsimile information on a form provided by the 19 commissioner of children and family services, alleging child abuse or EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [] is old law to be omitted. LBD01751-04-4A. 1987--A 2 1 maltreatment, and for use by all persons so authorized by this title for 2 determining the existence of prior reports in order to evaluate the 3 condition or circumstances of a child. When any allegations contained in 4 such telephone calls could reasonably constitute a report of child abuse 5 or maltreatment, such allegations and any previous reports to the 6 central registry involving the subject of such report or children named 7 in such report, including any previous report containing allegations of 8 child abuse and maltreatment alleged to have occurred in other counties 9 and districts in New York state shall be immediately transmitted orally 10 or electronically by the office of children and family services to the 11 appropriate local child protective service for investigation. The 12 inability of the person calling the register to identify the alleged 13 perpetrator shall, in no circumstance, constitute the sole cause for the 14 register to reject such allegation or fail to transmit such allegation 15 for investigation. If the records indicate a previous report concerning 16 a subject of the report, the child alleged to be abused or maltreated, a 17 sibling, other children in the household, other persons named in the 18 report or other pertinent information, the appropriate local child 19 protective service shall be immediately notified of the fact[, except as20provided in subdivision eleven of this section]. If the report involves 21 either (i) an allegation of an abused child described in paragraph (i), 22 (ii) or (iii) of subdivision (e) of section one thousand twelve of the 23 family court act or sexual abuse of a child or the death of a child or 24 (ii) suspected maltreatment which alleges any physical harm when the 25 report is made by a person required to report pursuant to section four 26 hundred thirteen of this title within six months of any other two 27 reports that were indicated, or may still be pending, involving the same 28 child, sibling, or other children in the household or the subject of the 29 report, the office of children and family services shall identify the 30 report as such and note any prior reports when transmitting the report 31 to the local child protective services for investigation. 32 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
