Fingerprinting Services Offices across Canada Already Comply with RTID Mandate TORONTO, May 25 /CNW/ - ComnetiX(TM) Inc. (TSX:CXI), a leading provider of biometric and identification solutions, today reported that it has been selected to participate in a Real Time Identification (RTID) Release 0.5 Pilot by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) for the processing of Civil applicant submissions. The Pilot is an early release and will commence in August 2006, several months in advance of the full release of RTID Phase 1. Participation in the pilot will give ComnetiX the opportunity to further familiarize itself with new technological requirements to be implemented in the RTID Release 1.0 and the new National Police Service (NPS) Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS) later this year. ComnetiX became Canada's first comprehensive electronic fingerprint capture service provider in December of 2005. Employees in ComnetiX' fingerprinting offices from Vancouver to Halifax are already using electronic fingerprint capture systems and are presently testing the new processes that will be compatible with the RTID Project NPS-NIST-ICD V1.7.7C specification. John Conohan, Vice President of Fingerprint Services stated that "this invitation to participate in the early release pilot is a significant achievement for our company. Our electronically captured fingerprints will be placed in an accelerated stream which will provide an enhanced level of service to all our clients". "ComnetiX is extremely pleased to be given the opportunity to be one of the first companies to connect to NPS electronically in order to submit fingerprints for criminal record verifications for civil purposes," said Bernard Crotty, Chief Executive Officer of ComnetiX. "This is a major milestone for the company in the electronic transmission of fingerprint records and further solidifies the pro-active approach that ComnetiX has taken to maintain our leadership in the Canadian fingerprinting services market."
