11   determination of whether the failure of a state to
12   include as criminal offenses against a minor the
13   offenses of kidnapping or false imprisonment of a
14   minor, committed by someone other than a parent and
15   which do not involve sexual abuse or attempted sexual
16   abuse, will result in a state being found not to be in

18   the Jacob Wetterling Crimes Against Children and
19   Sexually Violent Offender Registration Act specified
20   in section 170101(f) of Pub. L. No. 104-145, 110 Stat.

22   department of public safety receives, as a result of
23   the request, an opinion that the failure to include
24   those offenses as criminal offenses against a minor
25   will cause a state to not be in compliance with the
26   federal Megan's Law amendment, the department shall
27   seek an exception to the requirement for inclusion of
28   those offenses and shall report the information
29   regarding the contents of the United States department
30   of justice opinion and any results of the exception
