PRIVATE SECURITY: NOTIFY POLICE S.B. 1321:
COMMITTEE SUMMARY
Senate Bill 1321 (as introduced 9-25-12)
CONTENT
The bill would amend the Private Security Business and Security Alarm Act to require a private security guard, private security police officer, or private college security force officer to notify a law enforcement agency if, while acting in the course of his or her employment, the guard or officer received a report that a crime had occurred.
(The Act defines "private security guard" as an individual or an employee of an employer who offers, for hire, to provide protection of property on the premises of another; the term includes an employee of a private college security force. "Private security police" means that part of a business organization or educational institution primarily responsible for the protection of property on the premises of the business organization, but does not include a private college security force. "Private college security force" means a security force created under Section 37 of the Act. Under Section 37, a private college or university in Michigan that has students living in college or university housing may authorize a private college security force through the action of the school's governing board.)
