. (a) Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 1051, 1052, and 1054 of the Labor Code and Section 2947 of the Penal Code, any credit union or officer or employee thereof may deliver fingerprints taken of an applicant for employment by the credit union to local, state, or federal law enforcement agencies for the purpose of obtaining information as to the existence and nature of a criminal record, if any, of the applicant relating to convictions, and to any arrest for which the applicant is released on bail or on his or her own recognizance pending trial, for the commission or attempted commission of a crime involving robbery, burglary, theft, embezzlement, fraud, forgery, bookmaking, receiving stolen property, counterfeiting, or involving checks or credit cards or using computers.
  (b) The Department of Justice shall, pursuant to Section 11105 of the Penal Code, and a local agency may, pursuant to Section 13300 of the Penal Code, furnish to the officer of the credit union responsible for the final decision regarding employment of the applicant, or to his or her designees having responsibilities for personnel or security decisions in the usual scope and course of their employment with the credit union, summary criminal history information when requested pursuant to this section. If, upon evaluation of the criminal history information received pursuant to this section, the credit union determines that employment of the applicant would constitute an unreasonable risk to the credit union or its customers, the applicant may be denied employment.

No request shall be submitted without the written consent of the applicant.
  (d) Any criminal history information obtained pursuant to this section is confidential and no recipient shall disclose its contents other than for the purpose for which it was acquired.
