Synopsis As Introduced Amends the Private Detective, Private Alarm, Private Security, and Locksmith Act of 2004. Authorizes the Department of Financial and Professional Regulation to resubmit the fingerprints of an applicant for renewal or restoration of a license, permanent employee registration card, or firearm authorization card to the Department of State Police for the purpose of an updated criminal history check at the time of renewal or restoration. Prohibits a person who has a mental disability demonstrated by the entry of an order or judgment by a court that the person is in need of mental treatment or is incompetent from being issued a permanent employee registration card (now, prohibits a person who has been declared incompetent by any court of competent jurisdiction by reason of mental disease or defect and has not been restored from being issued a card). Prohibits a person who is not (i) a U.S. citizen, (ii) a permanent resident, or (iii) in legal possession of an authorization to work supplied by the Department of Homeland Security from being issued a permanent employee registration card. Adds the conviction in Illinois or another state of any 2 or more violent offenses towards persons or property to the list of occurrences that merit disciplinary sanctions.
Senate Committee Amendment No. 1 Provides that a person shall not be issued a permanent employee registration card who has been determined to be incompetent and is currently under a court order of guardianship or has been determined to be subject to involuntary or judicial admission as provided in the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code and is currently subject to a court order under those provisions.
Senate Floor Amendment No. 2 Provides that the updated criminal history check shall be performed subject to the provisions of the Act and that the license holder shall not be held responsible for any incurred cost of the updated check. Removes the provision that prohibits a person who is not (i) a U.S. citizen, (ii) a permanent resident, or (iii) in legal possession of an authorization to work supplied by the Department of Homeland Security from being issued a permanent employee registration card.
