Amends GS 115C-77 (formerly GS 115C-332), by updating it to reflect changes that were made to the statute by SL 2025-47, including amending new subsection (j), which concerns criminal history checks that apply when a governing body contacts for transportation services and new subsection (k), which concerns when a governing body may ask another governing body that has already conducted a criminal history check to confirm whether any disqualifying offenses were reported, by changing references in those subsections to local boards of education to governing bodies, conforming with changes made in this act to other parts of the statute.
