(1969, P.A. 756, S. 14; P.A. 04-192, S. 12; P.A. 08-73, S. 3.)
History: P.A. 04-192 limited issuance of identification card to nonuniformed investigators, operators or agents by the licensee of a private detective “agency”, in lieu of “business”, eliminated references to employee, requirement that licensee of a watchman, guard or patrol service issue card to each of his nonuniformed agents and requirement that card contain index fingerprint, and made technical changes; P.A. 08-73 substituted private investigator for references to operator or agent and deleted “nonuniformed”.
