Upon receipt from the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation of an investigative report pursuant to paragraph 9 of Section 150.2 of Title 74 of the Oklahoma Statutes, the Commissioner of Public Safety or a designee shall determine what, if any, executive security will be provided to the official by the Department of Public Safety. The Commissioner of Public Safety may, upon the request of a state agency head, appoint and commission qualified individuals to provide executive security for that agency. The Commissioner shall determine the qualifications of the individuals, the authority level and the time period for the appointment and commission. Nothing in this section shall preclude the Department of Public Safety from providing temporary executive security to a state official, if essential, prior to the receipt of the investigative report from the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation.
