Bill Summary

Amend The South Carolina Code Of Laws By Amending Section 40-6-240, Relating To Auctioneers Licenses, So As To Provide That An Individual With An Expired License Who, At The Time Of Expiration, Was In Good Standing, Has Twenty-five Years Or More Of Licensure In South Carolina, And Who Is Sixty-five Years Of Age, May Apply To The Auctioneers' Commission For A License Renewal.

AI Summary

This bill amends South Carolina's auctioneer licensing regulations to create a special license renewal pathway for experienced, older auctioneers. Specifically, an individual who has an expired auctioneer's license can apply for renewal if they meet three key criteria: their license was in good standing when it expired, they have at least 25 years of licensure in South Carolina, and they are at least 65 years old. The applicant must pay the standard renewal fee, and notably, they will be exempt from the typical continuing education requirements that are normally mandatory for license renewal. This provision appears designed to provide a more accommodating licensing process for long-standing, senior auctioneers who have significant professional experience in the state. The bill will take effect immediately upon receiving the Governor's approval.
