		(1)  be serially numbered with an incident number in a 
manner that allows each incident of referral of a juvenile offender 
who is the subject of the incident fingerprint card to be readily 
ascertained;  and
		(2)  be multiple-part forms that can be transmitted 
with the juvenile offender through the juvenile justice process and 
that allow each agency to report required data to the department.
	(d)  Subject to available telecommunications capacity, the 
department shall develop the capability to receive by electronic 
means from a law enforcement agency the information on the uniform 
incident fingerprint card.  The information must be in a form that

justice information system.
