AN ACT

To amend chapter 650, RSMo, by adding thereto one new section relating to regulation of local law enforcement agencies.




Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the state of Missouri, as follows:


            Section A. Chapter 650, RSMo, is amended by adding thereto one new section, to be known as section 650.015, to read as follows:

            650.015. 1. Beginning August 28, 2010, all local law enforcement agencies in this state shall be subject to the regulatory authority of the department of public safety.

            2. The department of public safety shall promulgate any rules or regulations necessary to effectively regulate all local law enforcement agencies in this state.

            3. Any rule or portion of a rule, as that term is defined in section 536.010 that is created under the authority delegated in this section shall become effective only if it complies with and is subject to all of the provisions of chapter 536 and, if applicable, section 536.028. This section and chapter 536 are nonseverable and if any of the powers vested with the general assembly pursuant to chapter 536 to review, to delay the effective date, or to disapprove and annul a rule are subsequently held unconstitutional, then the grant of rulemaking authority and any rule proposed or adopted after August 28, 2010, shall be invalid and void.
