The House assembled at 10:00 a.m.
Deliberations were opened with prayer by Rev. Charles E. Seastrunk, Jr., as follows:
Our thought for today is from Psalm 56:3: "O most High, when I am afraid, I put my trust in you."
Let us pray. Almighty God, help us to understand and believe that when we put our trust in You and follow Your lead, great things happen. Continue to keep these Representatives and staff safe and continue to bless them with Your favor. Bless our Nation, President, State, Governor, Speaker, staff, and all who serve in these Halls of Government. Protect our defenders of freedom as they protect us. Heal the wounds, those seen and those hidden, of our brave warriors who suffer and sacrifice for our freedom. Lord, in Your mercy, hear our prayers. Amen.
Pursuant to Rule 6.3, the House of Representatives was led in the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America by the SPEAKER.
After corrections to the Journal of the proceedings of yesterday, the SPEAKER ordered it confirmed.

(2) at the rate of two dollars per thirty-day period for each ten dollars loaned on that portion of the loan exceeding fifty dollars but not exceeding one hundred dollars;

(5) at the rate of fifty cents per thirty-day period for each ten dollars loaned on that portion of the loan exceeding one thousand dollars but not exceeding two thousand dollars the maximum amount in subsection (C).

'Consumers: All pawnbrokers operating in South Carolina are required by law to post a schedule showing the maximum rate of LOAN FINANCE CHARGES stated as dollars for each ten dollars for each thirty-day period that the pawnbroker intends to charge for various types of pawn transactions. The purpose of this requirement is to assist you in comparing the maximum rates that pawnbrokers charge, thereby furthering your understanding of the terms of pawn transactions and helping you to avoid the uninformed use of credit.
NOTE: Pawnbrokers are prohibited only from granting credit at rates higher than those specified above. A pawnbroker may be willing to grant you credit at rates that are lower than those specified, depending on the amount, terms, collateral, and your credit worthiness.'"
SECTION 13. Section 40-39-120 of the 1976 Code is amended to read:
"Section 40-39-120.

The administrator may revoke any Certificate of Authority if the pawnbroker has violated this chapter or any regulation or order lawfully made pursuant to this chapter, or if facts or conditions exist which would clearly have justified the administrator in refusing to grant a Certificate of Authority had these facts or conditions been known to exist at the time the application for Certificate of Authority was made. The administrator may promulgate regulations for obtaining and revoking the Certificate of Authority. Certificates of Authority must be renewed on a yearly basis. Applications for renewal must be accompanied by a renewal fee of two hundred seventy-five dollars.
(B) If a pawnbroker's certificate of authority is not renewed before June thirtieth, the administrator shall assess the pawnbroker in addition to the renewal in subsection (A). If a pawnbroker fails to renew his certificate of authority within thirty days after the date the certificate of authority expires or otherwise maintain a valid certificate of authority, the administrator shall require the pawnbroker to comply with the requirements for the initial issuance of a certificate of authority pursuant to this chapter, in addition to any assessment that has accrued.
(C) In the event of closure because of surrender or revocation of a certificate of authority, a pawnbroker shall, for the sole purpose of allowing a pledgor to redeem pledged goods, maintain usual business hours at the pawnshop for ninety days after the latest maturity date of a pawn transaction made at that pawnshop or transfer of pledged goods to a pawnbroker with a valid certificate of authority."
SECTION 14. Section 40-39-140 of the 1976 Code is amended to read:
"Section 40-39-140. (A) No pawnbroker shall accept property from a pledgor or seller upon which there is evidence of ownership by a third party without first taking reasonable steps to ascertain its true ownership. Any such item accepted for pawn or purchased by a pawnbroker must be returned on demand without fee to the third party owner.
(B)(1) If property in the possession of a pawnbroker was leased to a pledgor or seller when the pledgor or seller pledged or sold the property to the pawnbroker and the property did not have a permanent label or other conspicuous mark identifying it as the lessor's property, the pawnbroker shall return the property to the lessor if the lessor:
(a) provides the pawnbroker with evidence that the property was the lessor's property and was leased to the pledgor or seller at the time the property was pledged or sold to the pawnbroker; and
(b) pays the pawnbroker:
(i) the amount financed and the finance fee for the pawn transaction, if the property was pledged to the pawnbroker; or
(ii) the amount that the pawnbroker paid the seller if the property was sold to the pawnbroker.
(2) A pawnbroker is not liable to the pledgor or seller of property that is recovered by a lessor under item (1) for returning the property to a lessor."
SECTION 15. Section 40-39-150 of the 1976 Code is amended to read:
"Section 40-39-150. (A) Upon finding that an action of a pawnbroker is in violation of the provisions of this chapter or of a law or regulation of this State or of the federal government or an agency of the state or federal government, the administrator may file a request with the Administrative Law Court for a contested case hearing in which the administrator may seek issue an administrative order requiring the pawnbroker to cease and desist from the action and may suspend, revoke, or refuse to issue a certificate of authority by order.
(B) The administrative law judge administrator also may impose issue an administrative order imposing administrative fines penalties of up to seven hundred fifty dollars for each offense upon persons violating any of the provisions of this chapter up to a maximum of fifteen thousand dollars for the same set of transactions or occurrences. Each violation constitutes a separate offense. In addition, a person violating the provisions of Sections 40-39-20 and 40-39-30 is guilty of a misdemeanor and, upon conviction, must be punished by a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars or by imprisonment for a term not exceeding sixty days, or both. The administrative law judge may revoke or suspend a pawnbroker's certificate of authority in addition to the penalties provided in this section. A determination by the administrator in this subsection is subject to the appellate process in the Administrative Procedures Act."
SECTION 16. A county or municipality may enact ordinances that are in compliance with, but not more restrictive than the provisions of this act, except that local ordinances may not require the payment of a fee or tax related to a pawn transaction or purchase unless authorized pursuant to this chapter or restrict hours of operation other than between midnight and 6:00 a.m. An ordinance that conflicts with this act is void. This act does not affect the authority of a county or municipality to establish land use controls or require a pawnbroker to obtain a local occupational license.

The Committee on Judiciary proposed the following Amendment No. 1 to H. 3653 (COUNCIL\GT\3653C001.GT.CM16), which was adopted:
Amend the bill, as and if amended, by striking all after the enacting words and inserting:
/ "Section 1. Section 23-1-210 of the 1976 Code, as last amended by act 3 of 2007, is further amended to read:
"(A) Any municipal or county law enforcement officer may be transferred or assigned on a temporary basis to work in law enforcement within multijurisdictional task forces established for the mutual aid and benefit of the participating jurisdictions, or in any other municipality or county in this State under the conditions set forth in this section, and when so transferred or assigned shall have all powers and authority of a law enforcement officer employed by the jurisdiction to which he is transferred or assigned.
(B) Prior to any transfer or assignment as authorized in subsection (A), the concerned municipalities or counties shall enter into written agreements stating the conditions and terms of the temporary employment of officers to be transferred or assigned. The bond for any officer transferred or assigned shall include coverage for his activity in the municipality or county to which he is transferred or assigned in the same manner and to the same extent provided by bonds of regularly employed officers of that municipality or county.
(C) Agreements made pursuant to subsection (B) shall provide that temporary transfers or assignments shall in no manner affect or reduce the compensation, pension, or retirement rights of transferred or assigned officers and such officers shall continue to be paid by the county or municipality where they are permanently employed, with the sending county or municipality being reimbursed for their services by the county or municipality to which they are transferred or assigned.
(A) In accordance with Article VIII, Section 13 of the South Carolina Constitution, the governing bodies of any county, incorporated municipality, or other political subdivision may agree with the State or with any other political subdivision to establish multijurisdictional task forces for the mutual aid and benefit of the participating jurisdictions. However, before any law enforcement services can be performed through a multijurisdictional task force, the concerned municipalities or counties must enter into written agreements stating the conditions and terms of the multijurisdictional task force.
(B) Agreements made pursuant to subsection (A) shall provide that the assignment of any officer to a multijurisdictional task force shall in no manner affect or reduce the compensation, pension, or retirement rights of any assigned officers and such officers shall continue to be paid by the county or municipality where they are permanently employed.
(C) Provided the conditions and terms of the agreements made pursuant to subsection (A) are followed, the chief executive officer of the law enforcement agency in the concerned municipality or county shall have the authority to oversee the multijurisdictional task force, manage multijurisdictional task force resources, assign officers to multijurisdictional task forces and determine the duration of his officer's assignment to the multijurisdictional task force.
(D) As is provided in Section 23-13-10, deputy sheriffs serve at the pleasure of the sheriff. Such pleasure not only entails how long a deputy serves the sheriff, but also how the deputy serves the sheriff. Therefore, the contracting authority of a county of this state shall not be interpreted to limit the authority of or obligate the personnel of the elected sheriff of the county. In all cases, the sheriff shall maintain his statutorily provided authority to enforce the laws of this State in the county to which he has been elected."
SECTION 2. Chapter 20, title 23 of the 1976 Code is amended to read:
Section 23-20-10. This chapter may be cited as the 'Law Enforcement Assistance and Support Act'.
Section 23-20-20. As used in this chapter:
(1) 'Law enforcement agency' means any state, county, municipal, or local law enforcement authority that enters into a contractual agreement for the procurement of law enforcement support services.
(2) 'Law enforcement provider' means any in-state or out-of-state law enforcement authority that provides law enforcement services to a law enforcement agency pursuant to this chapter.
(3) 'Law enforcement services' means any law enforcement assistance or service for which a fee is paid based on a contractual agreement performed by a law enforcement officer as defined in Section 23-23-10(E)(1).
SECTION 23-20-30. (A) The General Assembly recognizes the need to promote public safety and further recognizes that there may be situations where additional law enforcement officers are needed to maintain the public peace and welfare. Therefore, the General Assembly authorizes a law enforcement agency any county incorporated municipality, or other political subdivision of this State to enter into contractual agreements with other law enforcement providers as may be necessary for the proper and prudent exercise of public safety functions. Public safety functions include traditional public safety activities which are performed over a specified time period for patrol services, crowd control and traffic control, and other emergency service situations. All contractual agreements shall adhere to the requirements contained in Section 23-20-40.
(B) Nothing in this chapter may be construed to alter, amend, or affect any rights, duties, or responsibilities of law enforcement authorities established by South Carolina's constitutional or statutory laws or established by the ordinances of South Carolina's political subdivisions, except as expressly provided for in this chapter.
SECTION 23-20-40. All written contractual agreements for law enforcement services must include, but may not be limited to, the following:
(a) a statement of the specific services to be provided;
(b) specific language dealing with financial agreements between the parties;
(c) specification of the records to be maintained concerning the performance of services to be provided to the agency;
(d) language dealing with the duration, modification, and termination of the contract;
(e) specific language dealing with the legal contingencies for any lawsuits or the payment of damages that arise from the provided services;
(f) a stipulation as to which law enforcement authority maintains control over the law enforcement provider's personnel; and
(g) specific arrangements for the use of equipment and facilities.
SECTION 23-20-50. (A) An agreement entered into pursuant to this chapter on behalf of a law enforcement authority must be approved by the appropriate state, county, or local law enforcement authority's chief executive officer. A state law enforcement authority must provide a copy of the agreement to the Governor and the Director of the Department of Administration no later than one business day after executing the agreement. An agreement entered into with a local law enforcement authority pursuant to this chapter must be approved by the governing body of each jurisdiction. For agreements entered into prior to June 1, 2000, the agreement may be ratified by the governing body of each jurisdiction.
In accordance with Article VIII, Section 13 of the South Carolina Constitution, the governing bodies of any county, incorporated municipality, or other political subdivision may agree with the State or with any other political subdivision for the joint administration of any function and exercise of powers and the sharing of the costs thereof. Therefore, a contract entered into pursuant to this chapter on behalf of a law enforcement authority must be approved by the appropriate governing bodies of each concerned county, incorporated municipality, or other political subdivision of this State. Contracts entered into pursuant to this chapter are executed between governing bodies, and, therefore, may last in perpetuity or until the contract is terminated by a participating party of the contract.
(B) As is provided in Section 23-13-10, deputy sheriffs serve at the pleasure of the sheriff. Such pleasure not only entails how long a deputy serves the sheriff, but also how the deputy serves the sheriff. Therefore, the contracting authority of a county of this State shall not be interpreted to limit the authority of or obligate the personnel of the elected sheriff of the county. In all cases, the sheriff shall maintain his statutorily provided authority to enforce the laws of this State in the county to which he has been elected.
(C) Provided the conditions and terms of the contracts made pursuant to Section 23-20-40 are followed, the chief executive officers of the law enforcement agencies in the concerned counties, incorporated municipalities, or other political subdivisions shall have the authority to send and receive such resources, including personnel, as may be needed to maintain the public peace and welfare.
(B)(D) The officers of the law enforcement provider have the same legal rights, powers, and duties to enforce the laws of South Carolina as the law enforcement agency contracting for the services.
SECTION 23-20-60. The Governor, upon the request of a law enforcement authority or in his discretion, may by executive order, waive the requirement for a written contractual agreement for law enforcement services required by this chapter during a natural disaster or other emergency affecting public safety."
