Section 169-B:15-a Inspection of Facilities; Lock-up Log.
Each facility used by law enforcement, county sheriffs, or state police to securely detain minors shall establish a lock-up log for all minors securely detained. The log shall contain the identification number, the charge, the date and time locked in secure detention, the date and time released from secure detention, to whom released, and reason for secure detention. The log shall be kept confidential both by the agency or facility which maintains it and by the department of health and human services, which shall receive copies of the log, January 1 and July 1 of each year, beginning January 1, 1989. To ensure that the requirements of this chapter and of 42 U.S.C. section 5633 are met, any secure or non-secure facility which detains minors shall provide, upon request and in a timely manner, access to the facility for inspection purposes to the department of health and human services jail compliance monitor, or the monitor's designee. If the facility is required under this section to maintain a log, access to the log shall also be provided.
