§ 489.520. Automated licensure status information system.

By January 1, 1995, the department shall implement an automated licensure status information system for electrical and alarm system contracting.

The provision of such information shall consist, at a minimum, of an indication of whether the certification or registration of the contractor applying for a permit is active, of any current failure of the contractor to make restitution according to the terms of any final action by the board, of any ongoing disciplinary cases against the contractor that are subject to public disclosure, and whether there are any outstanding fines against the contractor.
