but not limited to, the number of domestic dispute and domestic violence problems

reported to the law enforcement agency for which the record is kept, the relationship

of the complainant and the person allegedly the victim of the domestic violence, if

different, to the alleged offender, and the relationship of all other persons involved

in the domestic dispute or domestic violence problem, and the action taken by the

law enforcement officers who handled the domestic dispute or domestic violence problem.  A copy of the record shall be submitted to the bureau each month. (B) The superintendent of the bureeau [sic.] of criminal identification and investigation

report on the incidence of domestic disputes and violence in this state and its political

subdivisions.  The report shall be prepared in such a manner that there is no identifying data,

including the names and addresses of the persons involved in the domestic dispute

and domestic violence problems, that would enable any person to determine the identity

of any of the persons involved. (C) The attorney general shall oversee the statistical reporting required pursuant to

this section to ensure that it is complete and accurate.
