To protect tribal law enforcement organizations and officers, Governor Kathleen Sebelius signed a bill requiring insurance carriers providing liability insurance coverage to tribal law enforcement officers to certify with the Attorney General that the tribal officers have the appropriate insurance coverage.
The bill, SB 13, also requires the insurance carrier to notify the Attorney General if the insurance coverage is terminated or no longer complies with the insurance requirements. Finally, it requires the insurance policy to be at least $2,000,000 in aggregate loss limit. The bill will take effect after its publication in the statute book.
Governor Sebelius also signed three additional bills into law, bringing the total number of bills signed during the 2007 Legislative Session to 12.
