(2) The nature and seriousness of the offense or
conduct.
(3) The circumstances under which the offense or conduct
occurred.
(4) The age of the applicant when the offense or conduct
was committed.
(5) Whether the offense or conduct was an isolated or a
repeated incident.
(6) Any evidence of rehabilitation, including good
conduct in the community, counseling or psychiatric treatment
received and the recommendation of persons who have
substantial contact with the applicant].
(b) Approval of others.--A person required by law or
regulation of the board to go through an approval process for
employment related to a licensed entity, involving either direct
employment by the licensed entity or providing services to the
licensed entity, shall not be approved by the board if the
person has been convicted of a felony in any jurisdiction.
Section 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
