60 Ind. Admin. Code 1.1-1-2

Current through December 4, 2024

Section 60 IAC 1.1-1-2 - Religious information on individuals

Authority: IC 5-15-5.1-20

Affected: IC 5-15-5.1

Sec. 2.

Collection of religious information about specific individuals is authorized under the following circumstances where religious information:

(A) Is voluntarily given and is needed to provide specialized individual services, such as special diets in state institutions, rehabilitative programs, or selective provisions of reading materials;

(B) Is voluntarily given and is incidental to the collection or other documentation in programs specifically mandated to preserve the historical, cultural or other heritages of the state; or

(C) Is needed to carry out responsibilities of the state for affirmative action or civil rights.

In each instance where a state agency wishes to collect religious information, the agency shall submit to the Oversight Committee a request for such collection. The request shall specify what kind of information is to be obtained, from whom, the specific uses of such information, whether or not such information will appear in any unrestricted record, whether or not the purpose for which collection is requested could be accomplished without the collection, and which provision of this section justifies the collection. The Oversight Committee shall consider each request separately, and shall maintain a list of the agencies and record series in which religious information may appear. No agency shall use religious information for any purpose other than that set forth in an approved request without making an additional request to the Oversight Committee.
