Bill > SB2051

This bill increases various fees charged by the North Dakota Private Investigative and Security Board across multiple licensing and certification categories. Specifically, the bill raises examination fees for private investigators and security services to $150, license issuance and renewal fees to $225, agency licensing fees to $150 and $450 respectively, and introduces new or increased late fees ranging from $15 to $150 depending on the type of license. The bill also increases fees for training certificates, armed certificates, registration services, and instructor certifications, with most fees rising by approximately 50%. Additionally, the bill mandates a performance audit of the North Dakota Private Investigative and Security Board to be conducted by the state auditor during the 2025-2027 biennium, which will be in addition to existing audit requirements. The changes to fee structures are declared an emergency measure, meaning they can take effect immediately upon passage, likely to provide the board with increased funding and more robust financial oversight.
