The Commission and Service Oklahoma shall be the recipients of the results of the record check.
No employee of the Commission or Service Oklahoma shall be eligible to enroll in the Oklahoma Law Enforcement Telecommunications System training course until the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation and the Federal Bureau of Investigation have reported to the Commission and Service Oklahoma that the person has no felony record and the Commission and Service Oklahoma have reported to the Department of Public Safety that the applicant does not have a felony record and is not participating in a deferred sentence or deferred prosecution agreement for a felony.
