The Director shall establish a program to allow a security employee or parole agent of the Department who is honorably retiring in good standing to purchase either one or both of the following: (1) any badge previously issued to the security employee or parole agent by the Department; or (2) if the security employee or parole agent has a currently valid Firearm Owner's Identification Card, the service firearm issued or previously issued to the security employee or parole agent by the Department.
