   (a)   The Director of Building and Housing shall cause each applicant for a master's or journeyman's license to be examined as to the applicant's character, training and experience and, if the Director finds that the applicant is qualified to engage in the business or to do the work for which the applicant seeks a license, the Director of Building and Housing shall cause such license to be issued.

   (b)   No license shall be issued, however, until the applicant presents evidence that the applicant and (in case of application for a master's license) all of the applicant's employees engaged in the work of exterminating are each covered by liability insurance in the amount of at least three hundred thousand dollars ($300,000) for injury or death to one (1) person, and five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000) for injury or death to more than one (1) person, resulting from the work of exterminating or the use of exterminants. The company issuing such insurance and the insurance contract shall be subject to approval of the Director of Law.

   (c)   The Director of Building and Housing may cause a master's or a journeyman's license to be issued to any person who has passed an examination given by any other public authority which, in the opinion of the Director, indicates that the applicant is qualified as required in this section.
