      subdivision  b  of  section 22-252 or subdivision a of section 22-253 of
      this code of any change in the ownership interest  of  the  business  or
      other material change in the information required on the application for
      such  registration  or  photo  identification  card, or of the arrest or
      criminal conviction of the registrant or any of  his  or  her  officers,
      employees or agents of which the registrant had knowledge or should have
      known.  Nothing  in  this  section  shall  be  construed  to  permit the
      revocation of a photo identification card of an employee who is a member
      of a labor union or labor organization solely for the reason  that  such
      person  has  sought  to  engage  in  the lawful exercise within a public
      wholesale market of an activity protected under the  provisions  of  the
      National  Labor  Relations Act, 29 U.S.C. § 141 et seq. The commissioner
      shall consult with the commissioner of labor relations prior to reaching
      any determination that an activity by a representative of a labor  union
      or  labor  organization is not lawful under the National Labor Relations
      Act.
