This bill amends the Code of West Virginia to authorize the West Virginia State Police to promulgate a legislative rule concerning contracted police or security services. Specifically, it references the legislative rule filed in the State Register on July 23, 2025, which was modified to address the concerns of the Legislative Rule-Making Review Committee and subsequently refiled on September 24, 2025. The new legal language inserted into the current law is "81 CSR 05," which pertains to the rule regarding these contracted services.

The primary purpose of this bill is to formalize the authority of the West Virginia State Police to implement regulations related to the provision of contracted police or security services, thereby ensuring that such services are governed by established legislative rules. This move aims to enhance the oversight and regulation of security services within the state, aligning them with the standards set forth by the West Virginia State Police.
