The regulations are intended to cover all criminal justice records systems that contain criminal history record information, whether the systems are manual or automated. Chapter 10.97 RCW defines the rights and privileges relating to criminal history record information and should not be interpreted to redefine or amend rights or privileges relevant to any other kinds of records or information.
