22    the Statewide Sex Offender Database.
23        (b)  The  Department  of  State  Police  must  make   the

25    accessible on the Internet by means of  a  hyperlink  labeled
26    "Sex Offender Information" on the Department's World Wide Web
27    home  page.  The  Department of State Police must update that
28    information as it deems necessary.

30    who  seeks  access  to  the  sex  offender information submit
31    biographical information  about  himself  or  herself  before
