The bill amends the Louisiana State Board of Private Investigator Examiners' fee structure, specifically updating R.S. 37:3516(A)(1) and (2). It increases various licensing fees for private investigator agencies and individual investigators. Notably, the examination fee for both private investigator agencies and individual investigators is raised from $50.00 to $100.00. Additionally, the reexamination fee is increased from $25.00 to $50.00, while the initial license fee for private investigator agencies is raised from $250.00 to $300.00, and the annual renewal fee is similarly increased from $250.00 to $300.00.

For individual private investigators and apprentices, the initial license fee is increased from $100.00 to $150.00, and the annual renewal fee is also raised from $100.00 to $150.00. The bill aims to ensure that the fees reflect the current costs associated with licensing and regulation within the private investigation industry in Louisiana.
