The Legislature has enacted L. B. 1184 concerning the investigation of child abuse and neglect and the treatment of victims of such abuse and neglect. The bill requires county attorneys to establish in each county multijurisdictional investigative and treatment teams to carry out the purposes of the act. This legislation requires each team to be appointed as soon as practicable after July 15, 1992. The act also contains a provision which permits counties or contiguous groups of counties to opt out of the act if said counties or groups of contiguous counties meet certain conditions and seek approval of the Nebraska Commission on Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice (Commission). The purpose of this regulation is to establish rules for those jurisdictions who elect not to create the teams required by the act.
