Description: Give the Public Safety Department power to commission corporate security advisers. Deny licensed corporate security advisers arrest powers unless commissioned by the department. Grant immunity to the department from lawsuits for commissioning corporate security officers.

MDN's database may not include committee assignments of bills made on the last day of the session since it is too late for the committee to act on the bill and, thus, the delayed assignment has no practical effect.
