What is the requirement for a license holder regarding notification of changes in partners or officers?

The requirement for a license holder to notify the board within 14 days of changes in partners or officers is in place to ensure that the licensing authority is kept informed about who is responsible for the operations of a licensed security company. This requirement is important for maintaining the integrity and accountability of the security industry.

Timely notifications within this specific timeframe allow the board to conduct necessary background checks or evaluations on the new individuals in these positions, ensuring they meet the appropriate standards and qualifications set forth by the regulatory authority. Maintaining current information on key personnel helps prevent potential issues related to mismanagement or misconduct, thereby safeguarding public safety and maintaining the trust in licensed security services.

This policy reflects the importance of proper oversight in the private security sector and the need to stay compliant with the regulations set by the Texas Department of Public Safety's Private Security Bureau. This requirement enhances the overall effectiveness and reliability of the security services provided to the community.
