Allonger la conservation des empreintes génétiques dans le cadre d’affaires criminelles

This is a French private member's bill (proposition de loi ordinaire) tabled in the National Assembly during the 15th legislature. Its title indicates that it seeks to lengthen how long genetic fingerprints, meaning DNA profiles held in criminal records, may be kept in connection with criminal cases. The metadata does not show the detailed provisions, so the exact retention periods and conditions are not known from this summary. The change would mainly concern people whose DNA profiles are stored in national criminal databases, as well as victims and investigators who rely on these records. Based on the title alone, it is not possible to say which specific offences or categories of individuals would be covered.
