Columbia Missourian - Bill seeks licensing, regulation of investigators: "Private investigators could be subjected to statewide scrutiny if a bill proposed by Sen. Harry Kennedy, D-St. Louis, passes.
On Monday, the Senate Financial Committee heard Kennedy’s bill, which would create a statewide board to license and regulate private investigators throughout the state.
Kennedy’s bill would allow current private investigators to become certified if they have been in good standing as a business for two years and provide proof of liability and workers compensation insurance. It would also require continuing educational requirements for all licensees.
Kennedy, who has proposed identical legislation the past three years, said Missouri was one of only six states in the country that don’t have statewide licensure and cited the need for oversight of private investigators as his reason for sponsoring the legislation."
