AI Summary
This bill amends Section 12 of Chapter 32 of the General Laws, which relates to the "Option (D) Member Survivor Allowance." The key changes are: 1) allowing a member to nominate one or more eligible beneficiaries to receive a portion of the Option (C) allowance that the member would have received had they retired on the date of their death, and 2) providing that if multiple beneficiaries are nominated, the benefit will be calculated using the youngest beneficiary's age at the time of the member's death. The bill also specifies that upon the death of a beneficiary, payments to surviving beneficiaries shall remain unchanged.
