     4  establish a voluntary surveillance access database to be  made  accessi-
     5  ble,  upon  written  request,  to  any law enforcement agency solely for
     6  purposes of a criminal investigation.

     7    2. Residential home owners and business owners who maintain a  closed-
     8  circuit  television  or  other  electronic video surveillance system may
     9  elect to register such information, limited  to  the  location  of  such
    10  system  and  the  contact  information for the owner, with the voluntary
    11  surveillance access database.  Such owners may withdraw  such  registra-
    12  tion from the database at any time.
    13    3. Registration information from such database shall be kept confiden-
    14  tial  and shall not be made available for disclosure or inspection under

    18  it shall have become a law; provided, however, that effective immediate-
